The rear part of the thigh is brownish, however, it can has reddish colours.The males have an internal vocal sac and one of more corneous spines on the thumps and sometimes on the chest that helps the male to grasp the female during the amplexus.

Habitat
These frogs are nocturnal and terrestrial.
Reproduction
The male calls from puddles produced and maintained by rain. When a female attends the call, the male grasps her in an axillary amplexus. The couple mixes water, air, semen and secretions to create a foam nest that can contain from 2 to 7 liters of foam. This foam can feed and moisten the tadpoles during the entire metamorphosis which takes about a month. The larvae will eat dead tadpoles of their own species.References:
