Tree Frog

Hyla versicolor/chrysoscelis

Description:

This beautiful young treefrog was very small, and found on a the leaf of a wetland plant.

Habitat:

Found at Irwin Prairie State Nature Preserve, which consisted mostly of wetland prairies.

Notes:

Hyla versicolor and H. chrysoscelis are indistinguishable except by genetic analysis or calls. They are distinguishable by range in some areas, but generally not so.
