Kendrickson 1950 Eleutherodactylus bogotensis Centrolene (RCS) "Dark Bogota Highland Frog" Nov. 14 Bogota, 8700 ft, Cundinamarca, Colombia, S.A. Many seen on broken - and - brush-covered W.-facing slope above city, roughly along lower edge of eucalyptus grove which covers higher portions, and also in the lower portions of the grove (we did not investigate the higher parts - they may occur there as well). Unlike the Phylllobates collected today, these anurans tended to remain motionless when uncovered, trying to escape only when touched. Their dark brown color blended well with the earth on which they were sitting.
