The Southern cricket frog

The southern cricket frog or southeastern cricket frog is a small hylid frog native to the Southeastern United States. It is very similar in appearance and habits to the northern cricket frog, ''Acris crepitans'', and was considered formerly conspecific . The scientific name ''Acris'' is from the Greek word for locust, and the species name ''gryllus'' is Latin for cricket .
