Rana latastei
This was the first Italian agile frog (and the only one so far) I ever sppoted! We found it during a biology camp. These frogs are endemic to the plains of northern Italy, the extreme southern tip of Switzerland, the Istrian region of Slovenia, and adjacent Croatia. I rarely go to that part of Slovenia so I was very happy to finaly see it in the wild.
It was found in low waters of Vipava river in the forest.
It has been categorised as vulnerable species by IUCN.
