Cyclorana platycephala
''Cyclorana platycephala'' (formerly ''Litoria platycephala'') is a frog common to most Australian states. It differs from most other members of the Hylidae family as a ground dweller and the ability to aestivate.
== Description ==
The species has a populations spread across all the Australian states except Victoria and Tasmania.〔 It occupies a wide range of habitat from forests of tropical swamp to intermittent pools and lowland grass country; all habitat is assumed to be of a low elevation. Populations are assumed to be large from frequent reports and a broad range.〔 This range is assumed to overlap with National parks, but research has not been undertaken into the ecology and biology of the species. It buries itself in sandy ground in a secreted, water-tight, mucus cocoon with its external skin during periods of hot, dry weather. For additional nutrition and to save energy, the frog eats the external skin.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://eol.org/pages/1047984/details )〕 It has been known to burrow to depths of up to 1 meter.
The water-holding frog is characterized by a broad, flat head, completely webbed toes, and a stout body which is usually dull gray to dark brown or green. They also have small eyes that are placed somewhat laterally and forward-directed, enhancing vision downward and binocular perspective (Cogger and Zweifel 1998)
