The Greenheart tree frog (Boana crepitans) is a small amphibian found in the rainforests of South America, particularly in Guyana. The estimated remaining population is unknown, but it is believed to be relatively stable. The main threats to this species include habitat loss due to deforestation and pollution. Climate change may also affect their population dynamics by altering their habitat conditions.
