Foam Nest of a Common Tree Frog

Description:

Polypedates leucomystax females deposit from 100-400 eggs in oval-shaped foam nests . The foam nests measure about 10 cm in length and are constructed on vegetation above ephemeral pools , or attached to a surface by the water's edge. Hatching takes place after three to four days, occurring at the external gill stage. At this point the larvae wriggle free of the foam nest and drop into the water below. http://amphibiaweb.org/cgi/amphib_query?...
