Anomaloglossus shrevei (common name: Shreve's rocket frog) is a species of frog in the Aromobatidae family. It is endemic to Venezuela[2] where it is only known from the Cerro Marahuaca and Cerro Duida, two adjacent tepuis. These frogs live near streams in tropical rainforest. It is not a common species but the population may be presently stable and is protected by Parque Nacional Duida-Marahuaca.[1]
