Quito stubfoot toad
The Quito stubfoot toad or Jambato toad, ''Atelopus ignescens'', is an extinct species of toad in the Bufonidae family endemic to Ecuador.〔 However, closely related, perhaps undescribed species may exist in Colombia.〔 Alexander G. Ruthven believed it to be the closest relative of the Guajira stubfoot toad (''Atelopus carrikeri'').
''Atelopus ignescens'' was formerly abundant along streams, but has not been seen since 1988. It inhabited cloud forests, humid sub-páramo bushland, and páramo grassland, and bred in streams. It is assumed that the disappearance of this species was caused by a combined effect of chytridiomycosis (confirmed in this species) and climatic change (warming and droughts), with some contribution from habitat loss too.〔
