Pine Barrens Tree Frog

Pine Barrens Tree Frog

This colourful green frog is marked by a deep lavender stripe running along the flanks and bright orange along the inner thigh. This endangered species,3 cm to 5 cm in length, can be found in wetlands, bogs and streams. Through the destruction of wetlands this nocturnal amphibian is an increasingly rare sight. Remaining pockets of the pine barrens tree frog can be found in the mid-Atlantic and Southern United States. [BM] {FW}
