Proceratophrys sanctaritae is a species of frog in the family Odontophrynidae. It is endemic to Brazil.[2][3][1]
This frog has been found in the leaf litter in Atlantic forests, both in shallow streams and far from water. Scientists observed the frog between 560 and 960 meters above sea level.[2][1]
Scientists have observed the frog in a single protected park, Refúgio da Vida Silvestre de Amargosa, which contains the largest tract of forest remaining in the area.[1]
