Charming Treefrog

Feihyla kajau is a beautiful, small frog, reaching 20 mm in males and > 20 mm in females. It has a soft, high pitched call. It is easily overlooked in the field and was scientifically described only in 1984 by Julian Dring. However, this species is quite common in lowland habitats.

These frogs sit on vegetation, 1–2 m high. They prefer small streams with slow current for reproduction or even stagnant pools that become ephemeral streams during the wet season. Clutches with only a few eggs are attached to leaves overhanging water. No foam nest is produced.
