This is one of the most spectacular species of the already spectacular group of tree frogs - the #phyllomedusines or Leaf and Monkey Frogs. #Cruziohylacraspedopus #Phyllomedusinae #LeafFrogs #LeafFrog #MonkeyFrog #AmphibianConservation #AmphibianConservationProgram #FrogsNeedOurHelp #AtlantaBotanicalGardenConservation #EndangeredSpecies #AtlantaBG #FrogsOfInstagram #frogs #frog #salamanders #salamander #ribbit #CaptiveBreeding #CaptiveBred #ExSitu #InSitu #CaptiveAssuranceColony via Instagram http://ift.tt/29kS0HF

#RainChamber #frogLAB #ToadLove There is dramatic size and color dimorphism in this species, with the females atypically more brightly colored than the males. #Inciliusconiferus #Bufonidae #AmphibianConservation #AmphibianConservationProgram #FrogsNeedOurHelp #SalamandersNeedourHelp #AtlantaBotanicalGardenConservation #EndangeredSpecies #AtlantaBG #FrogsOfInstagram #frogs #frog #toad #toads #ribbit #CaptiveBreeding #CaptiveBred #ExSitu #InSitu #CaptiveAssuranceColony

Gliding Leaf Frog, #Agalychnis spurelli in the #RainChamber ...

Image
Hopefully we will be able to breed this remarkable species soon. A. spurelli belongs to the hylid subfamily #Phyllomedusinae - Leaf and Monkey Frogs - Their extensive webbing on the hands and feet enable this frog to glide from one tree to the next. #Agalychnisspurelli #AmphibianConservation #AmphibianConservationProgram #FrogsNeedOurHelp #SalamandersNeedourHelp #AtlantaBotanicalGardenConservation #EndangeredSpecies #AtlantaBG #FrogsOfInstagram #frogs #frog #ribbit #CaptiveBreeding #CaptiveBred #ExSitu #InSitu #CaptiveAssuranceColony

  This is where we work with non-Panamanian species of frogs from Central and South America. If you saw the post from two days ago, you saw that our central Panama frogs are housed in isolation on the #FrogPOD It was hard to get a shot of all the enclosures, so I focused on these four. In these we keep Leaf Frogs (subfamily: #Phyllomedusinae ) Cruziohyla calcarifer, the Splendid Leaf Frog; C. craspedopus, the Fringed Leaf Frog; Agalychnis moreletii, the Black-eyed Leaf Frog and Agalychnis spurelli, the Gliding Leaf Frog as well as two species of Glass Frog (family: #Centrolenidae ) Sachatamia albomaculata, the White-spotted Glass Frog and Cochranella granulosa, the Granular Glass Frog. Also in this room are other phyllomedusines such as Blue-sided Leaf Frog, Agalychnis annae; Red-eyed Leaf Frog, A. callidryas; Lemur Leaf Frog, Agalychnis lemur. We also have several morphs of Dendrobates tinctorius that we breed for research, exhibits and outreach - donating many of them to vari...

#Ventral view of a Granular Glass Frog, Cochranella granulosa. Through the #integumen of this transparent frog we can clearly see major organs such as the heart and GI tract. Also visible are a few of the major blood vessels. There are also portions of the skeleton visible such as the #metatarsals as well as #phalanges on both the hands and feet ... Awesome! #Cochranellagranulosa #Cochranella #Centrolenidae #GlassFrog #TransparentFrog #FrogAnatomy
