Breviceps fichus

Males grow to 35 mm (1.4 in) and females to 43 mm (1.7 in) in snout–vent length. The snout is bluntly rounded. The tympanum is not visible. Skin is pitted dorsally and smooth ventrally. The dorsum is brown with darker mottling. Dark bands run from the eyes to the arms. The lower parts are white. Throat is black in breeding males.^[3]

The male advertisement call is a brief, low-pitched, pulsed whistle.^[3]

Breviceps fichus occurs in high-altitude grasslands at elevations above 1,500 m (4,900 ft). Males call during the day from shallow burrows at the base of dense grass. Development is, presumably, direct^[1] (i.e., there is no free-living larval stage^[4]). Threats to this species are not known.^[1]
