''Ranitomeya imitator'' (formerly ''Dendrobates imitator''), is a species of poison dart frog found in the north-central region of eastern Peru. Its common name is mimic poison frog,〔East Carolina University. March 12, 2010. (Biologists find proof of first confirmed species of monogamous frog. ) ''ScienceDaily''. Retrieved May 31, 2013.〕 and it is one of the best known dart frogs.〔J.L. Brown, E. Twomey (2011). “ZOOTAXA: A taxonomic revision of the Neotropical poison frog genus Ranitomeya (Amphibia: Dendrobatidae)” Magnolia Press pp. 68-72. In Schulte, Rainer (1989). “Eine Neue Dendrobates- Art aus Ostperu (Amphibia: Salentia: Dendrobatidae) pp. 11-21〕 It was discovered in the late 1980s by Rainer Schulte who later split it up into more subspecies; describing each as a specific color morph, and sometimes having a separate behavioral pattern. The acoustics, morphs, and behavior of the species have been extensively researched.〔 == Morphology == A few of the morphs include, but are not limited to, striped, spotted, Varadero, and banded.〔Ranitomeya imitator”. dendrobates.org. In Schulte, Rainer (1989). “Eine Neue Dendrobates- Art aus Ostperu (Amphibia: Salentia: Dendrobatidae) Sauria 8(3): 11-20.〕 The striped morph is the most widely spread, mimicking the striped Ranitomeya variabilis and can be found throughout the lower Huallaga drainage in Peru.〔 The spotted morph mimics the highland spotted frog ''Ranitomeya variabilis'' with mainly blue-green coloration, but can be found in other forms, sometimes in yellow.〔 The ''aradero'' morph is a lowland form that lives nearby another but does not resemble it.〔 Last, the banded morph, a mimic of ''Ranitomeya summersi'', lives in much drier climates than the average ''R. imitator'' and is most often found in ''Dieffenbachia'' and ''Heliconia'' plants.〔
