Default Species ID help!

Hello all! I guess this is actually a bit of an intro as well... I'm Rachel and I have had darts for several years, both leucs and azureus breeding pairs. I need some help IDing a pair of frogs I rescued today.

Today somebody who heard through a friend of a friend that I had darts called me up and said they had "dwarf darts" and they needed to find them a new home as they were not eating the large crickets (aaack!!! ) that they had been offering. So we met and I picked up their dwarf dart frogs. They had no idea about species or anything. The story I heard from them was that they got the frogs from a friend who brought them back from Panama (highly unlikely... but who knows maybe smuggled somehow? or more likely a huge mis-understanding! I am guessing the story was more like the friend went on vacation (to Portland Oregon or something) and brought back a pair of darts native to Panama... anyway who knows!) I am going to try to attach some pictures I just took of these guys. They are in an awful little tank and are really really skinny, but I am going to be moving them this evening to better quarters and they are already chowing on a bunch of fruit flies. Poor little things they look awful. I can't figure out what they are so if anyone has any good guesses I'd love to hear!

Thanks!
Rachel
