Dwarf coqui
The dwarf coqui or elfin coqui (''Eleutherodactylus unicolor'', in Spanish ''coquí duende'') is a species of frog endemic to Puerto Rico.
==Description==
The dwarf coqui is a small frog with a grayish-brown back, a black-mask like face, and a series of light dots that follow through to the posterior of the frog.〔Mowbray, Alan. (“Wildlife Facts – October 2006 – Dwarf Coqui.” ) US Forest Service. October. 2006. Web. 2 March. 2010.〕 The females have a light line across the eyelids and usually have “white dots along the face, flanks, forelimbs, and thighs.”〔 The ''Eleutherodactylus'' species do not have webbed feet. These frogs, especially the dwarf coqui, have individual, finger-like feet, with round, disc-like toes.〔 ''E. coqui'' is often referred to as the “coqui,” which originates from its distinctive call. The “coqui” frogs are known for the unusual sounds they make. “The call of the dwarf coqui has been compared to the sound of a fingernail being dragged across the teeth of a comb or the winding of a watch.”〔
