Ectopoglossus absconditus is a sparsely-researched species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae. It is known to only be endemic to Cordillera Occidental, Cauca Department, Colombia.[2][3]
Scientists know this frog from three individuals discovered in 1938 and 1939. They were found in humid forests on hills between 800 and 900 meters above sea level.[1]
The IUCN classifies this frog as data deficient. Specimens were found near Parque Nacional Natural Munchique, and scientists believe it may live within this protected park.[1]
