Adelphobates Andinobates Dendrobates Excidobates Minyobates Oophaga Phyllobates Ranitomeya Dendrobatinae is the main subfamily of frogs in the family Dendrobatidae, the poison dart frogs of Central and South America, found from Nicaragua to the Amazon basin in Brazil.

[1] Dendrobatinae are generally small frogs; Andinobates minutus is as small as 13–16 mm (0.51–0.63 in) in snout–vent length.

Many species are brightly colored and all are toxic.

[2][3] All species are presumed to show parental care, often by the male.

However, some species show biparental care (Ranitomeya), whereas in Oophaga only females care for the tadpoles, feeding them with eggs, their only source of nutrition.
