Micro frog
The micro frog or Cape Flats frog (''Microbatrachella capensis'') is a minute species of frog in the Pyxicephalidae family, in the monotypic genus ''Microbatrachella''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Pyxicephalidae )〕 Its colour varies from rufous brown with dark mottling, to tan or green, depending on the population. The micro frog is endemic to the south-western Cape area of South Africa, with a single population found on the Cape Flats of Cape Town and a series of populations on the eastern side of False Bay, from Kogelberg to Cape Agulhas. Its natural habitat is at low altitudes, in and around shallow, vegetated freshwater wetlands in coastal restioid fynbos, a Mediterranean-type vegetation dominated by restios (Cape reed). Typically, these wetlands have some areas of permanent water along with other areas inundated during the winter–spring rainy season. ==Description== This is a very small frog with a rounded snout and smooth skin.〔 At around long, it is one of the smallest regional species. The dorsal surface is dark brown, speckled with pale brown and there is a pale band of colour running down each flank. There is a dark bar between the eyes and a narrow pale line along the spine. The underparts are pale brown and the belly spotted with white.
