Unlike other poison dart frogs, this species is only slightly toxic. The males have a characteristic persistent call, which allows them to defend territories and attract spawning females.
These poison dart frogs show a lot of care for their brood. The offspring is mainly cared for by the males who guard and irrigate the soil. In addition, they transport the newly hatched tadpoles to a suitable watering hole. The males piggyback the offspring (see photo).
