Adenomera inopinata, the unforeseen terrestrial nest-building frog, is a species of frog in the family Leptodactylidae. It is endemic to Brazil.[2][3][1]
This frog lives in lowland rainforests, where it is found on the leaf litter. Scientists have seen it 143 m (469 ft) above sea level.[1]
Scientists have not seen these frogs in any protected places, but Parque Nacional Da Amazônia is about 40 kilometers from where they did see it, along the same revier. Scientists think the frogs may live there.[1]
