I.D. this frog

[mrmikk]

Can anyone ID this frog for me?

He hopped into my office last night and was kind enough to pose for some photos.

I am thinking either;

1. Litoria nasuta (Rocket Frog)
2. Crinia tinnula (Wallum Froglet)
3. Limnodynastes salmini (Salmon-striped Frog)

I am thinking # 3, but hoping it is #2.

Striped Marsh

I thought it was a bit light in colour for a Striped Marsh, and doesn't have the black blotching on its legs like a striped marsh

Agree with Lim. peronii. Colour and pattern alone can be deceptive.

Cheers,
David.

i reckon it looks more like a rocket frog?

Lit. nasuta has a much more pointed/streamlined shape and a distinct tympanum (indistinct in Lim. peronii). Rocket frog also lacks the pale vertebral stripe and darker paravertebrals and tends to lack dark spots on the flanks. Definitely striped marsh.

Trying to improve my photography quality (it took a while to get these three shots) What do you think?
