Painted mantella
The painted mantella is a tiny, stout frog with bright yellow, green and reddish-orange markings. It lives only on Madagascar, in forests and along streams. Its skin contains toxic chemicals, so it is best left alone.1

怎样认出它
- Body is usually blackish, with the back commonly black.1
- A green or yellowish stripe runs along the head.1
- Thighs and upper arms are usually yellow to green, while the lower legs and feet are reddish-orange with blackish patches.1
- Yellow-green blotches extend to the sides of the body close to the front legs.1
- Markings are irregular and vary a lot, with black and yellow streaks.1
常被误认为: It is closely related to Mantella pulchra and very similar to Mantella baroni. Some authors think Mantella madagascariensis is actually a group of hidden species that look alike.1

事实
Its skin contains several toxic alkaloids, and all Mantella species share this feature.1
