Frogs of Lakefield

Posted on Thursday June 21, 2007 by Stewart Macdonald

As always, feel free to correct any of these identifications (this means you, Beth and K-ris and Ed!).


Litoria pallida


Cyclorana australis



A spotty green tree frog


Desert tree frog (Litoria rubella)


Marbled frog (Limnodynastes convexiusculus)


Looks like some sort of rocket frog to me


Is this a rather plain ornate burrowing frog (Limnodynastes ornatus)?


Four green tree frogs (Litoria caerulea) and one Litoria rothi on a leaking water tap. This isn’t a particularly good pic, but it shows an interesting subject.

    Could that first frog be the newly designated Litoria jungguy?

    Hi Betho,

    Another frog friend of mine suggests it’s probably Litoria pallida.

    You have a friend who’s a frog? Maybe you’re loosing it in the tropics there.

    Stewart,

    That is not Litoria junguy (nor a wilcoxi…way to far north for them, they seem to stop about Townsville)

    Your friend is correct that is Litoria pallida.

    CHeers,
