Anomaloglossus tepequem is a frog in the family Aromobatidae. It is endemic to Brazil.[2][3][1]

This diurnal frog is found in forests high on the tepui flatland. It has been observed between 500 and 1100 meters above sea level.[2][1]

Reproduction

Scientists infer that these frogs reproduce in the same manner as their congeners: The female lays eggs on the leaf litter, and the adult frogs carry the tadpoles to water.[1]
