Bufo caeruleostictus Günther, 1859 Bufo chanchanensis Fowler, 1913 Rhaebo caeruleostictus is a species of toad in the family Bufonidae.
It is endemic to Ecuador and occurs along the lower western slope of the Cordillera Occidental at elevations of 40–2,000 m (130–6,560 ft) asl.
[1][2][3][4] The specific name caeruleostictus, from Latin caeruleus (=blue) and Greek stiktos (spotted), refers to the bluish colour pattern of this species.
[3][4][5] The Dorsum and sides have blueish-blackish vermiculations on orangish background (this coloration is assumed to be aposematic).
[5] It is a rare species that is threatened by habitat loss caused by agricultural expansion, logging, and wood plantations.
