Osteocephalus carri is a frog in the family Hylidae. It lives in Colombia. It lives near the Amazon River and a little way up into the Andes mountains.[1][2] Scientists have seen it as high as 700 meters above sea level.[3]
Scientists used to think this was the same frog as Osteocephalus buckleyi, but it is not. Scientists watched the frogs and saw the tadpoles of the two species looked different.[3]
