Geocrinia
Geocrinia is a genus of frogs in the family Myobatrachidae. These frogs are endemic to Australia. All the species in this genus were originally referred to as ''Crinia''. Further studies showed there was some considerable differences between this group of frogs and ''Crinia''. These differences included; a slightly sturdier body, smoother skin on the ventral surface and the greatest difference, the reproductive nature, laying the eggs outside of water. Some species of ''Geocrinia'' go through the tadpole stage entirely in the egg capsule while others develop initially in the egg then hatch when sufficient rain falls for them to complete their larval development in water. Five of the seven species live in Western Australia while the other two species are confined to south-eastern Australia. ''Geocrinia alba'' is considered critically endangered, due to habitat loss from expansion of the wine industry in Western Australia. ==Species==
