Green Frog

Medium-sized green frog. Green frogs have dorsolateral ridges that run down the sides of their backs, which distinguishes them from bullfrogs, which lack them.

  Not too big - maybe 5 cm. The vegetation was tiny - I'm not sure what the plant growing in the water was called, but the leaves were maybe around 5 mm diameter. Posted 7 years ago

    Most likely Spirodela polyrrhiza.
