    Default [Asian] Country Park in Hong Kong

    I am surprised that the number of frog species I can find is quite large, given that this part of the country park is located very near to residential area.

    1. Very common one - Duttaphrynus melanostictus (Bufo melanostictus)
    These toads are very common in Southeast Asia

    2. Also quite common - Polypedates megacephalus
    The scientific name of this frog suggests that it has "many feet" (polypedates) and has a big head (megacephalus)

    Thanks for sharing pics; like the P. megacephalus .
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​

    Nice! What other species have you seen there?

    I'm jealous of the Kaloula pulchra ... we have a few here in the south - considered non-native escapees - but I haven't managed to see any yet!
