Allobates kingsburyi (common name: Kingsbury's rocket frog) is a species of frog in the Aromobatidae family. It is endemic to the Amazonian slopes of the Andes in Ecuador, near the Reventador volcano and in the Pastaza River trench.[2] Its natural habitats are tropical premontane forests within a relatively narrow altitudinal zone, 1,140–1,300 m (3,740–4,270 ft) asl. It is threatened by habitat loss.[1]
