Phyllobates terribilis "Yellow" Sex:Male creating foam nests above waterPhyllobates terribilis 'Yellow' are not very variable, and most individuals are virtually identical to each other. When young, yellow terribilis come out of the water as a mostly black frog with a small 'U' of colour on the dorsum. As they age, this 'U' spreads and eventually covers 95% or more of the frog's body, with a bit of black remaining around the nostrils mouth and toes.
