Braun's dwarf frog (Physalaemus lisei) is a frog. It lives in Brazil.[2][3][1]
Home
The frog lives on the dead leaves on the ground in Brazil's Atlantic forest place. People see it in forests that were cut down and are growing back, edges of forests, and on tree farms. Scientists have seen this frog between 0 and 1,200 m (0 and 3,937 ft) above sea level.[1]
The frog's home has some protected parks in it or next to it: Floresta Nacional de Sao Francisco de Paula, Parque Estadual Itapeva, Parque Municipal Sertão, Parque Nacional da Serra Geral, Parque Nacional de Aparados da Serra, and Reserva Biológica Lami Jose Lutzenberger.[1]
Young
This from has young in bodies of water that dry up for part of the year, for example puddles. The adult frog makes a nest out of bubbles for the eggs. The nest is attached to grass. The tadpoles swim in the water.[1]
Danger
Scientists from the IUCN say this frog is not in big danger of dying out. Some of the frogs may be in some danger when humans cut down too many trees and collect wood to use.[1]
