The Manaus slender-legged tree frog (Osteocephalus taurinus), also known as the giant broad-headed tree frog, is a species of frog in the family Hylidae found in Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guyana,[2] Peru, Suriname, and Venezuela.

Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forest, subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest, moist savanna, rivers, intermittent freshwater marshes, and canals and ditches.

The skin of the frog's dorsum is light bronw to dark brown in color.
