Pseudopaludicola florencei is a frog. It lives in Brazil in Minas Gerais.[2][3][1]
Home
This frog lives in dead leaves on the ground in Caatinga and Atlantic forest placess. It can live in grassy places, places with small, woody plants, and forests. It is good at living in places that have been changed. For example, people see it in forests where some trees are missing and in places where animals eat grass. Scientists have seen it between 0 and 10 m (0 and 33 ft) above sea level.[1]
There are protected places where the frog lives, for example Área de Preservação Ambiental Marimbus-Iraquara.[1]
Young
The young hatch out of their eggs as tadpoles, not small froglets.[1]
Danger
Scientists from the IUCN say this frog is in some danger of dying out.[1]
