The Phu Luang cliff frog (''Huia aureola'', (タイ語:กบชะง่อนผาภูหลวง)) is a newly discovered true frog species from northern Thailand. It is most notable for its ability to change color between green and brown. It was initially described in the genus ''Odorrana'' and may well be properly belong there. The species was originally found in Phu Luang Wildlife Sanctuary, Loei Province, and has later been confirmed in the neighboring Phu Kradueng National Park as well. It is found in swift brooks in altitudes above 1000 m. It can reach a size of 60-80 millimeters, with females being about 10mm larger than the males. However, only few female frogs were found.〔(The Nation, May 23 2007 )〕 ==Footnotes== 〔 ==References== * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Huia aureola」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
