Dendrophryniscus brevipollicatus is a species of toad in the family Bufonidae. It is endemic to Brazil and found on the coastal ranges of São Paulo state and Rio de Janeiro states.[2] Its natural habitats are primary, secondary and seasonally flooded forests up to 900 m (3,000 ft) above sea level. It lives in terrestrial and epiphytic bromeliads, where it also places its eggs. It is a common species, although habitat loss can be a threat.[1]
