Dendrobates

Learn more about this article

Dendrobates is a genus of poison dart frogs native to South America. It once contained all poison dart frogs; until recently, frogs such as Dendrobates pumilio and Dendrobates terribilis were scientifically valid names. The genus still retains many species, however.

Taxonomy

Dendrobates once contained over 40 species, but has lost nearly all of them to the genera Oophaga, Ranitomeya, and Phyllobates. It retains the five original species:

The generic name Dendrobates is derived from the Greek words dendron ("a tree") and bateyo ("I mount").[1]
