What frog is this? They call it waltzfrog at a petstore in Sweden but I want to know its real name. I hope it's okay that I link to the sites picture witch is on the pet store that owns the legal rights and use, and not uploaded by me. (thinking about copyright). If I don't claim the ownership and upload a picture to your site it should be all right, right?

Looks to be a reed frog of some type. I would look it up, but the books are on the other side of the room.
Okay, anyone else wanna give it a go?
The problem is many species of reed frogs look like that one, particularly males. A single pale green and lightly spotted reed frog like that one with no other data to go by is almost impossible to identify with certainty. Even if you have a large group to look at and know the country of origin pinning down a species can be very difficult. That is why so often you see green reed frogs being sold as "hyperolius. sp". It could be a male argus reed frog, or it could be any one of a great many species.
i could be wrond but i was thinking it was some type of glass frog. could this be?
what do you guys think?
Glass frogs are extremely rare in herpeculture. Often certain types of treefrogs are sold as "glass frogs", Sphaenorhynchus lacteus & Hypsiboas punctatus come to mind.
