My comments below:

• 24.87–27.33 mm (0.979–1.076 in) for adult males and 20.42–28.59 mm (0.804–1.126 in) – Maybe in the lead, it would be appropriate to round these numbers, to make them a bit easier to read?
  • Done.

• Ameerega munduruku is a species of poison dart frog in the family Dentrobatidae. – You link "family", but a link to Dentrobatidae would be more important?
  • Already linked as poison dart frog earlier in the sentence.

• from snout to the groin. – I would say either "from the snout to the groin" or "from snout to groin"?
  • Fixed.

• The upperside of the limbs are brown – uppersides
  • Fixed.

• Two orange spots are present, one on the armpit and another hidden one on the lower leg and an orange stripe runs from the groin to the upperside of the thigh. – Sentence needs rephrasing.
  • Split up into two.

• vocal slits – link or explain?
  • Linked somewhat tenuously to vocal sac, also glossed.

• The hands and feet lack webbing, and there are no protrusions on the tarsus. – Does "tarsus" refer to the bones, as the linked article indicates, or is this frog jargon? If the latter, can it be replaced with a common-language word?
  • Seems to just refer to the bone.

• and the presence of the palatine teeth – remove "the"
  • Done.

• near water in open areas in forest – forests?
  • I think it's fine to use forest as a mass noun here.

• Obvious question: Is it poisonous? This is not stated in the article. --Jens Lallensack (talk) 04:25, 18 November 2023 (UTC)
  • Almost certainly, but none of the sources say anything about it and the sources confirming toxicity in Ameerega frogs are all from before this species was described, so would be OR to say.

• Jens Lallensack, see responses above. AryKun (talk) 11:57, 18 November 2023 (UTC)
