The Nova Teutonia white-lipped frog or gray-striped frog (Leptodactylus plaumanni) is a frog. It lives in Brazil and Argentina. Scientists think it may also live in Paraguay.[2][3][1]
Home
The adult frogs live in grassy places and near the ends of forests. This frog can live in places where human beings have cut down the trees. The frog is good at living in places where human beings have built farms. Scientists have seen the frog between 400 and 1200 meters above sea level.[1]
Scientists saw the frog in protected places.[1]
Young
This frog makes a nest out of bubbles for its eggs. It digs a hole for the nest. The tadpoles swim in the water.[1]
Danger
Scientists from the IUCN say this frog is not in danger of dying out. In some places, the frogs are in some danger from pine tree farms and places where cows eat grass.[1]
