Eleutherodactylus portorricensis
The sound they make (Co-Qui) serves two purposes. 'CO' serves to repel males and establish territory while the 'QUI' serves to attract females.
Hi up in the mountains of Toro Negro Forest we found several of them hiding under big leafs and under rocks. Very humid area.
I marked a website that can listen to the different coqui's songs :) enjoy
