ABSTRACT Human hard rubbish in the form of old building materials, sheets of iron and the like have long been known as habitat for reptiles in particular (Hoser 1996). This paper details use of plastic sheets as a refuge and habitat for multiple species of frogs in Victoria, Australia, including as a potential springboard for range expansions.

Eastern Banjo Frog: This frog is also known as the pobblebonk frog due to the sound of its calls. They live in moist areas of Southeastern Australia, where five recognized subspecies distinguished by their colouration are found. During dry periods, they burrow underground, and have even been heard calling from their burrows. They emerge to hunt at night and after rains and will travel up to 1 km in search of a breeding site. The female cares for the eggs, carrying bubbles of air down into their foamy mass to keep them oxygenated. After hatching, tadpoles take four to fifteen months to mature, depending on ambient temperatures. This species was also the first amphibian to have its genome sequenced!

African Dwarf Frog: A genus of four species, Hymenochirae is a genus commonly kept in captivity as aquatic pets due to their calm demeanor with other creatures their size. In the wild, they are found in still pools in equatorial Africa, and are fully aquatic, drying out after 20 minutes out of water. H. boettgeri is the most studied species of the genus, but H. curtipes is also bred in captivity. They are opportunistic scavengers and have black claws on their hind feet to tear apart large pieces of food, which they shove or suck into their tongueless mouths. Pictured is H. boettgeri.

Top 5 frogs, go.

Oh I am so glad you asked this

1) has to go to the Green Tree Frog (Ranoidea caerulea), absolute classic frog, textbook. Just a little green guy who eats bugs. Love them.

2) the Perons Tree Frog (Litoria peronii) is a wonderful little guy. They have thunder thighs (bright marbled patterning on the inside of their legs that flashes when they jump to make predators think they're poisonous) and are also called the emerald-speckled tree frog, laughing tree frog, and maniacal cackle frog for obvious reasons.

3) goes to the Pobblebonk!! (Limnodynastes dumerilii) I love these little guys!! They go bonk bonk bonk like a banjo, wonderful

4) the Whooping Frog (Heleioporus inornatus) is native to Western Australia and sounds like a little video game character doing a jump, ain't that neat?

5) the Sunset Frog (Spicospina flammocaerulea) is a rare little guy who looks like a molten rock, but they're endangered :( hope they recover soon

Thanks again :)

Happy International Earth Day (today) along with some wicked frog images of the rarely seen tiny frog species Crinia sloani and the moderately well-known Limnodynastes fletcheri, both with quite specific habitat requirements in the face of similar species in the same genera that are more broad ranging.

Images taken from the field in far north Victoria.

Do you speak any languages (other than english, and i assume german and danish?) Also what do you think is the funniest common name of an amphibian in any language you speak?

I speak English and German fluently, and French, Malagasy, and Danish less than fluently.

Pobblebonk (Limnodynastes dumerilii) is probably the best common name for a frog in any language, and that one is English onomatopoeia.

Fun fact(s): They get the “banjo frog” name from the fact that their call sounds a lot like a banjo - [video of one calling]. There are other banjo frogs as well!

This is Bruce!

Bruce is a teenager Coastal Banjo Frog (Limnodynastes dumerilii grayi) who is halfway through his 2 month quarantine before he can meet Bonk and Barry!

Bruce is from a subspecies of Pobblebonk frog that lives on the coast in NSW. You can tell Bruce apart because he has a beautiful stripe down his back, and when he’s fully grown he will be about 1cm smaller than Barry!
