Crossodactylodes pintoi (common name: brown bromeliad frog) is a species of frog in the family Leptodactylidae. It is endemic to Rio de Janeiro and Espírito Santo states of southeastern Brazil,[2] although the latter records may represent another species.[1] This little known species is assumed to be associated with bromeliads, similarly as other Crossodactylodes species. It is probably impacted by habitat loss, including that caused by collecting of bromeliads.[1]
