The blue poison dart frog or blue poison arrow frog is a poison dart frog found in the forests surrounded by the Sipaliwini savannah, which is located in southern Suriname and adjacent far northern Brazil. ''D. tinctorius "azureus"'' is also known by its Tirio Indian name, ''okopipi''. Its scientific name comes from its azure color. While frequently considered a valid species in the past, recent authorities treat it as a variant of ''D. tinctorius''.
