  1. Excidobates mysteriosus frog, is a species of frog that is endemic to Peru. It is known for the polka-dots and a special white dot is always located right under its chin. Unlike other rainforest frogs, this species lives in on open, dry rocky cliffs and canyon walls in northwestern Peru. It relies on bromeliad plants growing on rocks. These plants catch rainwater in their petals to create vital water pools and act like "umbrellas" to shield the frogs from the harsh daytime heat.
