Craugastor pozo

Males measure 37–48 mm (1.5–1.9 in) and females 46–81 mm (1.8–3.2 in) in snout–vent length.[3][4] The canthus rostralis is sharp and tympanum is distinct. The dorsum is brown, typically with a few black streaks or spots associated with the poorly developed parietal and suprascapular ridges. The prefrontal area is pale brown, separated from the back of the head by an interorbital bar. There are usually conspicuous dark lip and limb bars. The supratympanic ridge has black lower edge. The flanks are cream with bold dark brown mottling or marbling. Large adult males have vocal slits.[4]

Before being recognized as representing a separate species, Craugastor pozo were identified as Craugastor brocchi.[3]

The species' natural habitats are wet forest areas[1] at elevations of 700–1,200 m (2,300–3,900 ft) above sea level.[3] They occur on the forest floor under leaf-litter among limestone boulders and limestone caves.[1] They hide by day and are active on the forest floor and in low vegetation by night.[3] This rare species is threatened by habitat loss. It is not known to occur in any protected area.[1]
