I have two of these little fellas - but I have no idea what they are (neither did the supplier)... This is the slightly larger one, it's throat turns deep blue when it calls - which is amazingly loud! The smaller one has redder eyes, and I've not heard it calling at all.
The bigger one is about this long at the moment - |_______________| and the smaller |____________|.
Enjoy - and if you can help at all, feel free to offer suggestions!
These are all photos of the big one - the other was hiding and refusing to open his eyes properly! |

My guess would be one of the Leptopelis sp. The vertically elliptical pupils aren't too common in frogs, the phyllomedusinae (leaf frogs) being one of the groups and the leptopelis being another. There are a few other families but I can't think of them  _________________ Licking this cane toad was the worst flippin idea you.............whoa man that penguin just put something in your pocket. |

Definitely not Littoria, I am most tempted by Agalychnis sp., these species also have vertical pupils. can you find out where they where imported from, that would help enormously. _________________ Tom
