The adult male frog is 15.7 – 18.2 mm long from nose to rear end.[4] The frog's head is wider than it is long. This frog is bright green in color with white spots on its back. It has some yellow color on its toes.[1]
Scientists think this frog is sexually mature early. The tadpoles grow reproductive organs before they become frogs. Scientists think this is so they can make young soon after becoming frogs.[1]
This frog lives in the same places as Dendropsophus elegans, Dendropsophus minutus, and Scinax alter.[1]
