Pristimantis danae

Pristimantis danae is a species of frog in the family Strabomantidae, sometimes known as Cuzco robber frog. It is found in the Andes between southern Peru and north-western Bolivia. It is named after the daughter of the author, Dana K. Duellman, who helped in collecting the frogs. Pristimantis reichlei, described in 2009, was previously confused with Pristimantis danae.
