    That's hilarious, I was joking around with Christine about it being more of dink than a tink, and here you go and upload a tink:
    Diasporus gularis - frontal, San Cipriano Reserve, Colombia https://www.jungledragon.com/image/145342/diasporus_gularis_san_cipriano_reserve_colombia.html<br /> Our first "Dink frog", genus Diasporus. The name refers to the very brief whistle/ting call of the male, like a notification on your phone. I did not hear this actual call.

      Someone clearly misheard the name when naming one of them. Posted 17 days ago

The Tink Frog

"Diasporus diastema" is a species of frog in the family Eleutherodactylidae. Common names include common tink frog or dink frog, supposedly because of the loud metallic "tink" sound that the male frog makes during the night.
