Gardiner's Seychelles frog
Gardiner's frog (''Sooglossus gardineri'') is a small frog of the Sooglossidae family and endemic to the Seychelles.
==Description==
Gardiner's frog is one of the smallest frogs in the world, reaching a maximum length of 11 millimetres (0.4 in). Newly hatched frogs measure only 3 millimetres (0.1 in) in length. Adult males are only 8mm long. It is brown in color, and has a dark stripe running from its mouth to its legs.
Gardiner's frog is notable for its ability to hear despite the absence of a middle ear cavity. Research has shown that the species is able to use its mouth cavity to amplify sound and transmit it to the inner ear.〔Renaud Boistel et al., How minute sooglossid frogs hear without a middle ear, ''Advance Online Publication PNAS Early Edition'' 2 September 2013.〕
