Direct Link Welcome to random Wiki of the Day where we read the summary of a random Wikipedia page every day.
Our random article today is Strongylopus kitumbeine.
Strongylopus kitumbeine (common name: Kitumbeine stream frog) is a species of frog in the family Pyxicephalidae. It is endemic to Tanzania and only known from its type locality, Mount Kitumbeine.
The species lives at elevations of 2,100–2,800 m (6,900–9,200 ft) above sea level along semi-permanent and seasonal streams and around temporary pools in montane Juniperus forests and tussock grasslands. It survives also in heavily disturbed forest. Breeding takes place in open water. While it is common within its small range, it has been assessed as being "Vulnerable" because of threats from livestock grazing and fire in combination with the small range.
