Pristimantis bogotensis

Pristimantis bogotensis is a species of frog in the family Craugastoridae, sometimes known as the Bogota robber frog. It is endemic to Colombia where it is only known from the Cundinamarca Department including the Bogotá area, on the Cordillera Oriental.[2][3] Its natural habitats are tropical moist montane forests and high-altitude páramo grassland, but it adapts to disturbance and can also occur on pastureland, provided that some shrubs remain.[1][3]
