Painted Mantella, Mantadia National Park, Madagascar (4338663028)
Description:
Description: I am not sure if this Mantella madagascariensis or M. baroni. The close resemblence between both species is said to be the result of "Müllerian mimikry" (i.e. two noxious species evolving a similar aposematic pattern that reinforces the signal towards predators).
