Colima Shiny Peeping Frog

<em>Eleutherodactylus orarius</em>, the Colima Shiny Peeping Frog, is a small frog in the family Eleutherodactylidae. This species is assessed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. It is documented in Mexico and is associated with freshwater habitats, moist forests, and wetlands. Like other members of the genus <em>Eleutherodactylus</em>, this species likely undergoes direct development, with eggs hatching directly into froglets rather than passing through a free-living tadpole stage. The epithet "orarius" suggests a coastal or shoreline association within its Mexican range. Diet, population estimates, population trend, and biological measurements including average length, weight, and lifespan are not specified in available records for <em>Eleutherodactylus orarius</em>. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature. Its Least Concern status reflects that populations are not currently considered under significant extinction risk, though the narrow endemism of many <em>Eleutherodactylus</em> species suggests that habitat degradation could pose future threats.
