Agalychnis callidryas (Cope, 1862) - Red-Eyed Leaf Frog

Description & Natural History

The Red-Eyed Leaf Frog is probably the single-most photographed amphibian species in the world, and are often referred to as the poster-child for the rainforest.

At present the Red-Eyed Leaf Frog is considered a common species in most of its range and is not threatened.
