Big-eyed tree frog
:''The name "Big-eyed Tree Frog" is also used for ''Litoria exophthalmia'' from New Guinea.''
The big-eyed tree frog, peacock tree frog, Amani forest treefrog,〔〔 or vermiculated tree trog〔 (''Leptopelis vermiculatus'') is a species of frog found in forest areas in the African country of Tanzania.〔
==Description==
This species is a medium to large frog ranging from 40-85 mm in length. It has two very different colour phases. In one phase, they are a bright green with scattered black specks all over the dorsal surface and the sides are marble with black and white. With some specimens, the end of the tibia to the toes, forearms and upper lip have white blotching outlined with dark green or black. In the other phase, they are brown with an irregular-shaped, darker brown triangular patch on the dorsum. Randomly placed darker or lighter brown spots and patches may appear over the dorsal surface, legs and forearms and a dark brown streak often runs from behind the tympanum ending halfway between the armpit and groin. In both phases, the ventral surface is cream-white. Some specimens show a transition between both phases and change from the green phase to the brown phase as they mature. The eyes are very big compared with body size and are golden with brown lines and flecks. Its large toe pads are used for climbing. The tympanum is distinct.
They are sometimes kept as pets.
