A Black-eyed Treefrog (Agalychnis morelettii) from southern Mexico several years ago. They’re related to the more famous red-eyed tree frog that’s on about every package and poster for tourists visiting the rainforests of Central America. They have sticky toe pads and in addition to jumping, walk along branches and vines to get where they’re going.
A Convict Treefrog (Boana calcarata) we found in Peru a few years back, near Iquitos. This one is showing the black and white bars on its sides that give it its name.
A Cabrara’s Slender-legged Treefrog (Osteocephalu cabrerai) from Peru a couple of years ago. These are large treefrogs that often have these rough areas that can make them about invisible in the chaotic backdrop of the Amazon.
This Red Eyed Treefrog from Guatemala looks a bit different than those I’ve seen in Costa Rica and Mexico.
One of the many large treefrogs one can find in the understory of the Peruvian Amazon on a night hike.
One of the Red-Eyed Treefrogs that called at night from the bushes above a small pond in Costa Rica last year.
This Red-Eyed Treefrog was really dark compared to others I’d seen! Found on a nighttime walk in the Guatemalan rainforest.
