Gastrotheca stictopleura is a species of frog in the Hemiphractidae family. It is endemic to Peru and known from the southern end of the Cordillera Azul in Huánuco, Pasco, and southern Junín Regions at elevations of 2,500–3,090 m (8,200–10,140 ft) asl.[3] Its natural habitats are cloud forests, but it can also occur in disturbed forests and pastures with trees. It is threatened by habitat loss caused by agriculture, logging and human settlement.[1]
