Quacking frog
The quacking frog (''Crinia georgiana'') also known as the red-thighed froglet〔 Bush, B et al. (1995) '' A Guide to the Reptiles and Frogs of the Perth region,'' Nedlands, WA University of Western Australia Press. ISBN 1-875560-42-4 p. 29〕 is a species of frog in the Myobatrachidae family. It is endemic to Australia.〔
== Description ==
''Crinia georgiana'' is a short or squat froglet that appears flattened and has a large head and short limbs. Characteristic of its family, this frog has long and unwebbed fingers and toes. The dorsal skin can be smooth, but it is usually bumpy or tubercular, while the underside is finely granular. The genus is polymorphic, however, meaning there is great variation in colour and texture of the skin within each species.〔Barker, J., Grigg, G. C., & Tyler, M. J. (1995). ''A field guide to Australian frogs.'' Chipping Norton, NSW: Surrey Beatty & Sons ISBN 0949324612.〕 In addition, some individuals may have a backside with skin folds, while others do not. Its colouring ranges from orange to brown to almost black on its back and may include brown marbling or brown stripes on either side of its back, which aid in camouflage. The belly of males is dirty-grey, while females have a bright white abdomen; both have a white spot at the base of each limb.〔 The groin and anterior and posterior surfaces of the thigh are bright red and the upper eyelids are either red or golden. Its hands are pale in colour. These traits are characteristic of the quacking frog and make it easily distinguishable from other species.〔
Tadpoles are golden in colour and their tail is transparent.〔
