Scinax ruber
These small tree frogs (up to 1.5") are dark gray with dorsolateral stipes of light gray. The venter is creme colored with no markings.
These can be found around sources of water, in most of the amazon. This one was seen sitting on a cement block in back of our house in the Amazon rainforest of SE Ecuador.
I have no idea why it is called the "red-snouted" tree frog. I've never seen a trace of red on the nose and I've seen, literally hundreds of them.
