This month I'll be posting a picture of a different species every day. If you'd like to participate, just upload a pic of a different species every day (taken recently, in the last month at the most) and tag it with #SpeciesADayChallenge.
#SpeciesADayChallenge, day 1: An Opsiphanes tamarindi (or kin) caterpillar, seen at Guáquira Ecological Station.
An enormous Orinoco crocodile (Crocodylus intermedius)
The imposing mandibles of the harlequin beetle (Acrocinus longimanus) allow it to easily bite through wood.
Flectonotus pygmaeus is a marsupial frog that lives in tropical rainforests. They are currently threatened by habitat destruction. They have no free-living tadpole phase; the female stores the eggs in a pouch on her back, and there they develop until they emerge as froglets.
