Pristimantis lymani, also known as Lyman's robber frog, is a species of frog in the family Strabomantidae. It is found in southern Ecuador and northern Peru.[2] Its natural habitats are montane forests, sub-páramo, and páramo. These common frogs have been found under stones by streams as well as in large bromeliads on rocky slopes and cliffs. While common and having a stable population trend, it is suffering from habitat loss.[1]
