Congrats Albert, your beautiful Striped Stream Frog has made the top 10 amphibian spottings in the '2015 Best Wildlife Photo' mission! Rangers are voting on the top 10 amphibian spottings, and the top 3 will be announced on February 2nd. The top 3 spottings will be commented on here on the site, but make sure you keep a look out on our Facebook app page for the announcement as well! Congratulations on making the top 10! https://www.facebook.com/projectnoah
Your spotting has been nominated for the Spotting of the Week. The winner will be chosen by the Project Noah Rangers based on a combination of factors including: uniqueness of the shot, status of the organism (for example, rare or endangered), quality of the information provided in the habitat and description sections. There is a subjective element, of course; the spotting with the highest number of Ranger votes is chosen. Congratulations on being nominated!
Thanks, @triggsturner.
I only managed to get 2 pictures of this frog before it jumps away.
Would have love to take more pictures of it.
Taxonomy is a little confusing. Some consider H. picturata to be a separate species, but don't think people can make up their mind on it. If you split them to separate species, then this would be H. picturata. But I don't think anyone will argue with you calling it H. signata for now until that gets decided.
