The spotted grass frog or spotted marsh frog (''Limnodynastes tasmaniensis'') is a terrestrial frog native to Australia. It is distributed throughout all of New South Wales and Victoria, eastern South Australia, the majority of Queensland, and eastern Tasmania. It is also naturalised in Western Australia, having been unintentionally introduced at Kununurra in the 1970s, apparently during the relocation of several hundred transportable homes from Adelaide. The spotted grass frog was also formerly known as the "Marbled frog" in South Australia,〔Waite, Edgar R. (1929): ''The reptiles and amphibians of South Australia.'' Facsimile Edition, issued to commemorate the Second World Congress of Herpetology, Adelaide,South Australia, by the Society for the Study of Amphibians and Reptiles. 1993.〕 although this common name is also used for ''Limnodynastes convexiusculus'', a species of ground-dwelling frog native to northern and north-eastern Australia, and southern New Guinea. ==Description==
This frog reaches 45 mm in length. Its colour ranges from light brown to olive-green, with large, irregular shaped, green or brown spots on its back. Occasionally it will have a thin, pale cream, yellow or bright orange stripe running from snout to vent. There is a raised pale stripe running from below the eye to the base of the arm. The arms and legs are spotted like the back, and the belly is white.
