Resumen

Dendropsophus columbianus es una especie que es frecuente ver en listados de diversidad con hábitos urbanos. Se instalaron seis hoteles para abejas en un relicto de bosque del campus de la Corporación Universitaria Santa Rosa de Cabal-UNISARC, Colombia. Se reporta el primer encuentro de la rana D. columbianus haciendo uso de hoteles para abejas en un remanente de bosque en Risaralda, Colombia. También discutimos sobre la capacidad de esta especie a adaptarse a ambientes intervenidos. Estas observaciones indican que el uso de hoteles para abejas en Colombia podría servir para albergar otras especies, incluso vertebrados pequeños.
