Here's a picture of the newly discovered Atelopus species from the eastern Suriname rainforest. It was discovered in 2005 by a scientific Conservation International expedition. Atelopus sp. are the so called harlequin toads in the Bufonidae family, and are among the most spectacularly colored of any amphibians. Unfortunately, captive breeding is difficult, and many species are critically endangered. At least one species,(the golden toad) is now considered extinct, I believe.
