Color in life: dorsal color of head, body and upper surfaces of the appendages uniformly dark brown; ventral of head dark brown with numerous small white spots along the mandibular arch; pectoral zone dark brown with small white spots, densely crowded on flanks; belly dark brown with large, irregular, bright orange spots; internal surface of forearm and ventral surface of tarsus with small white glands; an orange band on ventral surface of arms and forearms; posterior surface of thighs with a large orange-red spot; palmar surfaces of hands and fingers orange-red; plantar surfaces of feet and toes IV and V dark brown, with orange tubercles; ventral surfaces of toes I to III bright orange; pupil surrounded by a golden ring; iris gold, finely spotted with dark brown. Measurements of holotype (in mm): Snout-vent length 20.00, head length 6.92 , head width 6.74, eye diameter 1.64, interorbital distance 2.10, eye-nostril distance 1.88, internarial distance 1.54, upper eyelid width 1.62, upper eyelid length 2.70, upper arm length 4.32, thigh length 8.06, shank length 7.14, foot length 11.00. Variation The range of measurements (in mm) of adult paratypes are (n = 54), average given in parenthesis): Snout-vent length 18.36-24.20 (20.56), head length 6.06-8.12 (7.06), head width 6.10-8.02 (6.95), eye diameter 1.48-2.10 (1.76), interorbital distance 1.98-2.74 (2.39), eye-nostril distance 1.58-2.36 (1.91), internarial distance 1.32-1.84 (1.56), upper eyelid width 1.32-2.38 (1.73), upper eyelid length 2.26-3.16 (2.72), upper arm length 3.60-5.90 (4.54), thigh length 6.90-9.40 (8.27), shank length 6.52-7.88 (7.09), foot length 10.10-13.80 (11.23). Much variation is observed in color pattern. Dorsally, specimens range from light brown to dark brown. The scapular region is lighter in some paratypes. Ventrally, the size and distribution of orange spots are extremely variable, with some specimens being orange on most of the belly and in part of the pectoral area. Other specimens only show very small orange spots on belly. The gular region varies from dark brown to gray. In dorsal view, the snout is truncate to slightly round. Sexual dimorphism is evident in the snout-vent length, being females larger (21.4-24.2 mm, mean = 22.92, n = 14) than males (18.36-22.59, mean = 19.92, n = 5 67). Mature males have conical nuptial pads on thumb and usually on second finger. Larval morphology Body length about one-third of total length; maximum body width at head level, just behind the eyes; body shape oval, depressed; snout truncate in dorsal view, rounded in lateral profile; ventrally, gular region somewhat concave, abdominal area slightly convex; eyes dorsolateral; nostrils dorsolateral, rounded and protuberant, closer to eye than snout; pineal end organ evident (as a pigmentless spot) between the anterior edges of the eyes; spiracle sinistral; spiracular opening oval, directed posterodorsally; intestinal assa located at left, near the spiracle; vent tube conspicuous, conical; vent opening dextral; caudal musculature becoming narrower gradually toward tip of tail, not reaching the end of tail; myosepts not very evident; tail axis straight (eutiural); dorsal fin slightly deeper than ventral, originating at body-tail junction; both fins with curved margins; tip of tail rounded. Oral disc anteroventral; disc with angular constrictions (emarginate); large rostral gap and medium-sized mental gap; marginal papillae in single row; intramarginal lateral papillae not evident; tooth row formula 2/3; jaw sheaths well developed and keratinized, pigmented distally; margins bluntly serrated; upper sheath wider than high, gently curved; lower sheath smaller, Vshaped. In preserved specimens, skin translucent; dorsum of head light brown, becoming darker posteriorly; venter translucent scattered with melanophores; tail musculature light brown with large unpigmented areas; fins transparent, melanophore rows mark courses of blood vessels. Measurements (range in millimeters, n = 9, average given in parenthesis) as follows: body length 4.28-5.29 (5.01), body maximal width 3.60-4.34 (4.05), body width at eye level 3.18-4.06 (3.62), body depth 2.80-3.60 (3.27), eye diameter 0.56-0.80 (0.73), eye-nostril distance 0.35-0.49 (0.41), interorbital distance 0.74-1.05 (0.94), internarial distance 0.77-1.05 (0.91), tail length 7.31-10.21 (8.57), fin maximal height 1.96-3.18 (2.84), oral disc width 1.82-2.62 (2.11).

fornecido por wikipedia EN
Melanophryniscus krauczuki is a species of toads in the family Bufonidae. It is found in the Misiones Province in northeastern Argentina and the Itapúa Department in the adjacent Paraguay.[1][3] The specific name krauczuki honors naturalist and ornithologist Ernesto Krauczuk.[2][4] Common name Krauczuk's redbelly toad has been proposed for this species.[4]
Description
Adult males measure 18–23 mm (0.7–0.9 in) and adult females 21–24 mm (0.8–0.9 in) in snout–vent length. The body is stout. The snout is short. No tympanum is visible. The fingers are short and slightly webbed. The toe are partially webbed. Skin is dorsally rugose and scattered with blunt, rounded warts that are tipped with one or more keratinized spinules. Dorsal coloration ranges from light brown to dark brown, sometimes with a lighter scapular area bot otherwise uniform. The belly is dark brown with irregular orange spots that range from being very small to large and covering most of the belly. Males have a subgular vocal sac.[2]
Habitat and conservation
Melanophryniscus krauczuki occurs in wet tropical grasslands with rocky soils and in scattered forests at elevations of 125–165 m (410–541 ft) above sea level. It is diurnal. Breeding is explosive and takes place in small, shallow, temporary streams running over basaltic beds.[1]
This species is abundant during breeding events, albeit somewhat difficult to spot because of its cryptic coloration. The overall population is believed to be stable. It can locally be threatened by urbanization and hydroelectric dams. It occurs in Fachinal Provincial Park and Puerto San Juan Private Reserve (Argentina).[1]

Melanophryniscus krauczuki es una especie de anfibios de la familia Bufonidae, descubierta y descripta por los investigadores argentinos Diego Baldo y Néstor Basso (2004), quienes la bautizaron en homenaje al destacado naturalista Ernesto Krauczuk. Fue considerada, al principio, como endémica de Argentina (provincias de Misiones y, más tarde, Corrientes), pero luego fue hallada también en Paraguay. Su hábitat natural son las praderas inundadas en algunas estaciones y a baja altitud.
