Proceratophrys ararype is a species of frog in the family Odontophrynidae. It is endemic to Brazil.[2][3][1]
Scientists observed this frog in the Caatinga biome. They believe it is an obligate forest dweller, living in high-humidity areas. Scientists saw the frog 740 meters above sea level.[1]
The frog's range overlapped with some protected parks: Floresta Nacional do Araripe-Apodi, Área de Preservação Ambiental (APA) da Chapada do Araripe.[1]
