Redbelly Toad (Melanophryniscus stelzneri)
Author's comments:
Melanophryniscus stelzneri. La pose panza arriba mostrando las manos rojas se llama unken reflex, y esos colores
aposemáticos son para engañar, en realidad no constituyen ningún peligro, son inofensivos
y comen principalmente hormigas. (Carlos M. Grassini)
