Guess - Frogs

[eipper]

Platyplectrum?

 

[GeckPhotographer]

Nope.

 

[eipper]

Is it a limnodynastid?

 

[GeckPhotographer]

It is not a foam nester so I assume no.

 

[eipper]

Assa

 

[GeckPhotographer]

Yep.

 

[eipper]

I had initial feel it was an Assa but did'nt look quite right and talked myself out of it, give me a sec to sort one out

 

[GeckPhotographer]

Haha ok. It is the weirdest Assa colouration I have seen and I have seen a lot of Assa so I thought it would be extra tricky. The full pic also looks rounder than most Assa.

Litoria Freycineti...

 

[eipper]

These are some of my favorites

 

[GeckPhotographer]

That there, ^ that is mean.
Litoria dentata?

Litoria latopalmata?

Litoria raniformis?

 

[eipper]

nope

 

[GeckPhotographer]

I have done my dash through the book and looked for similar pictures. I have no tadpole knowledge myself so.

 

[eipper]

hint...I am fairly sure a photo of this species tadpoles has never been published

At least I gave you the whole animal as opposed to an ear....

 

[GeckPhotographer]

Hahahaha very true. My knowledge of tadpole photography and publications is woeful. L.castanea/flavipunctata ?

 

[eipper]

not a castenea

 

[GeckPhotographer]

Hmm L.andirmalin ? (Not a good guess but I am pretty sure no tadpole pics have been published).

Am I on the right track in terms of Litoria?

 

[eipper]

nope on both counts

 

[GeckPhotographer]

Haha damn.

Oh, that looked so much like the photo I saw of a Tusked Frog.

As for the tadpole, is it a Limnodynastid?
