Adenomera juikitam, the Goiás tropical bullfrog, is a species of frog in the family Leptodactylidae. It is endemic to Brazil.[2][3][1]
This frog is known from Cerrado, Caatinga, and other biomes. It lives in areas with rocky limestone or sandy soil. This frog lives where there is at least some shade.[1]
Scientists know these frogs exclusively from protected places: Área de Preservação Ambiental Pouso Alto and Parque Nacional da Chapada dos Veadeiros.[1]
Reproduction
Scientists think this frog reproduces on land and the tadpoles do not eat.[1]
