I thought you'd like that one. I didn't know it was one of the larger ones. There certainly seems to be a bit of localities for them. I wonder if they are all morphs of the same species?
I'm not as familiar with Oophag either, but the genus sure seems to produce quite a variety of frogs. Even O. pumilio has locality populations last I knew.
Oh, indeed. There are many locales of pumilio, even multiple yet different populations in similar locales. Take the O. pumilio 'Bastimentos' for example: There are several differing populations in different parts of the island of Bastimentos, such as Red Frog Beach, Salt Creek, Cemetery, etc. As you know, I keep Cemetery Bastis myself. One of the cool things about that population is that they are polymorphic, having color variations.
Indeed I learned that info on a documentary show about those frogs. The ones on Red Frog Beach are quite pretty, certainly some I'd want.
The term 'thumbnails' in the hobby is usually reserved for frogs in the Ranitomeya genus, although some Oophaga are just about as small. The name "Strawberry Dart Frog" has become sort of a catch-all common name for Oophaga pumilio in general, even though many of them aren't red. The frog you're referring to is most likely O. pumilio 'Blue Jeans', which is red with blue limbs. Really sharp looking little frog. Though there are also others with blue and red, such as O. pumilio 'Escudo' which is much more rare and smaller, and from what I've been told is becoming quite scarce in the wild as well.
I thought thumbnails extended Ranito's..hmm I didn't know this. The frog I saw doesn't look like pumilio to ME, but maybe it's a morph. I will have to check the magazine if I still have it. You know when you stare at them a while, all the colors blend together at times. They could have called them Poison Paint Frogs
Blue Jeans is def. a sharp looking frog, always liked it. When I find the magazine I'll let you know.
