Rhinella abei is a species of toads in the family Bufonidae. It is endemic to southeastern Brazil where it occurs in eastern ParanĂ¡, eastern Santa Catarina, and northern Rio Grande do Sul.[1] Its natural habitats are lowland Atlantic Forest below 1000m (3,000feet) asl. Its habitat is suffering from degradation and fragmentation caused by logging (in the past) and clearance for agriculture and coastal development, posing threats to this species.
