I think its a spotted marsh frog, Limnodynastes something.

I dunno about the spotted part but deffs looks like a Limnodynastes

Looking at some pics it looks like a flat-headed frog but that would be nuts. LOL

Could be Limnodynastes fletcheri, barking marsh frog or Limnodynastes tasmaniensis, spotted marsh frog. They both have similar markings but I haven't seen a picture of either with the exact look of this one. It would be handy to know where it was found. You could post the pics over at www.frogs.org.au. for an expert opinion.

It is a Spotted Marsh Frog.
I was comparing it to pictures of the Long-thumbed frog and the Barking Marsh Frog, and found a similarity to the Long-thumbed frog (the blotch between the eyes), but considered it to my late Spotted Marsh, and since the blotches, like mine, were green, it's most likely a Spotted Marsh Frog.

I'm no expert, though.

Hey Plimpy where are you getting the L. aurea?

 

[dihsmaj]

Not sure, Danny...
In a way, my signature's a wishlist, but I'm going to be searching for L. aurea or L. raniformis as soon as I do the tanks.
