Confusing Green Bush Frog-Male

Raorchestes chromasynchysi

Description:

True to its name,this froggy proved tricky to ID..The female is a brilliant green with little resemblance to the male.. Listed as Vulnerable because its extent of occurrence is estimated to be 7,204 km2, it is known from three threat-defined locations and its population is considered to be severely fragmented, and there is continuing decline in the extent and quality of its habitat in the Western Ghats of India Thanks Vipin Baliga for the ID :-)

Habitat:

Dense evergreen forest

Notes:

A different morph,forns a excellent camouflage on the forest floor.
