The Atlantic forest dwarf frog (Physalaemus olfersii) is a frog. It lives in Brazil.^[2][3][1]

This frog lives in Atlantic rainforest places. It lives in forests that were never cut down and forests that were cut down and are growing back. People see this frog on the dead leaves on the ground, on the ground, and near small plants. Scientists have seen it between 0 and 1,200 m (0 and 3,937 ft) above sea level. Scientists have seen the frog in protected places.^[1]

These frogs have young in ponds. The young hatch out of the eggs as tadpoles, not small froglets.^[1]

Scientists from the IUCN say this frog is not in danger of dying out. There are many large pieces of forest where the frog lives, and much of the forest is in protected places. About half the frogs live in forests like these. The other half may be in danger from small pieces of forest where the frogs can't move in between, people making towns, farms, tree farms, and places for cows to eat grass and by setting fires. People used to cut down many tree to get wood to use but now people only take a small amount of wood.^[1]
