Talamanca’s glass frog (Hyalinobatrachium talamancae) is among those glass frog species where the male actively guards his eggs masses until they hatch and tadpoles fall into the stream below. This one is among the amazing species I saw while being at @veragua_rainforestcr last July. #hyalinobatrachium #amphibian #wetskin #parentalcare #frog #treefrog #glassfrog #picoftheday #herps #herpsofinstagram @ilcp_photographers (at Veragua Rainforest Research & Adventure Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/CicjObkKcRY/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

New species of frog from the Neotropics carries its heart on its skin

In the Neotropics, there is a whole group of so-called glassfrogs that amaze with their transparent skin covering their bellies and showing their organs underneath. A recently discovered new species from Amazonian Ecuador, however, goes a step further to fully expose its heart thanks to the transparent skin stretching all over its chest as well as tummy.

The new amphibian is described by a team of scientists led by Dr. Juan M. Guayasamin, Universidad San Francisco de Quito, Ecuador, in the open access journal ZooKeys.

It can also be distinguished by the relatively large dark green spots at the back of its head and the foremost part of the body. Additionally, the species has a characteristic long call.

The new frog is named Hyalinobatrachium yaku, where the species name (yaku) translates to 'water' in the local language Kichwa. Water and, more specifically, slow-flowing streams are crucial for the reproduction of all known glassfrogs.
