''Allobates chalcopis'', also known as the Martinique volcano frog or ravine rocket frog, is a species of frog in the Aromobatidae family.〔 It is endemic to Mount Pelée, Martinique.〔 ''Allobates chalcopis'' is the only aromobatid〔Dendrobatid in the taxonomy employed by Fouquet ''et al.'' (2013).〕 species endemic to an oceanic island. This has led to a suggestion that it is not native but an introduced species,〔 synonymous with some mainland species.〔 However, examination of new specimens with molecular phylogenetics methods suggests it is truly distinct from the mainland ''Allobates'', and highly diverged from its closest relatives. This conclusion is also supported by morphological and ecological evidence, thereby supporting the position that it is a true endemic.〔 ==Description== ''Allobates chalcopis'' is a small frog with males measuring about in snout–vent length and females about . Its dorsum is light brown with darker markings. Males have a distinctive, black throat, tapering off to a dark gray, whereas females have uniformly pale orange throat and venter. The tadpoles are terrestrial, free-living, and endotrophic—they do not feed but rely on stored yolk. The body is ventrally flattened, and they grow to a length of at least .
