Stripeless Tree Frog

Stripeless Tree Frog Hyla meridionalis (Mediterranean Tree Frog)

Attractive little frogs, about 5cm long. Disc-like suckers on tips of fingers and toes enable them to climb through vegetation easily. Mainly nocturnal, but sometimes discovered sitting in full sun on foliage where they rely on their usually effective camouflage as protection from predators.

5/3/07 We came upon this very bright green individual in our garden when opening up the table-tennis table, where he may have spent the winter
