Scinax imbegue is a frog. It lives in Brazil. Scientists have seen it up to 700 meters above sea level. It lives in forests where the trees are not too close together.
The adult male frog is 25.6–35.0 mm long from nose to rear end and the adult female frog is 28.8–38.0 mm long. This frog is dark brown in color with darker stripes. Sometimes it has two white stripes from each eye to its middle. Not all frogs have this white stripes. There is a dark brown mark between its eyes.
