Southern laughing tree frog : ウィキペディア英語版 | Tyler's tree frog
Tyler's tree frog or the southern laughing tree frog (''Litoria tyleri'') is an arboreal tree frog native to eastern Australia. It occurs from southeast Queensland to the south coast of New South Wales. It is generally a coastal species and is not found inland. == Description ==
This frog is grey-brown to fawn (of various shades) on its dorsal surface, and a whitish-yellow on its ventral surface. Females are larger than males and reach a maximum size of about 50 mm. It has green flecks on the back. The iris is golden in colour and it has cross-shaped pupils. This species is very similar to the Peron's tree frog, (''Litoria peronii''). The easiest way to tell them apart is by call, butr ''L. peronii'' has strong black and yellow marbling in the thighs, armpits, hands and feet. ''L. tyleri'' has only faint yellow and brown marbling in the legs and armpits, lacking marbling in the hands and feet. This species lacks a strong black line above the tympanum, this line is present in ''L. peronii''. As it is an arboreal frog, the toe pads are larger than its toes and fingers, allowing it to grip well on branches. Its hands are partially webbed, its toes are completely webbed, and the tympanum is visible. During breeding, males can turn a very strong yellow colour.
