    Default Identify the speice please?

    Hello people! I recently bought this frog, cuz I realy liked the red that he had on the top of his eyes!

    Can you recognize what kind is he?






    Sorry for the quality, I don't have any better picture... I hope you can see the red on the top of his eyes in the second pic!


    The guy that i bought it from told me that its from the genus Hyperolius.

    But I need to know how to care that frog, and I need to find a care sheet.

    I am leaning towards Leptopelis as well, not sure of the species. I looked in my African field guides and found nothing. Try looking here - http://calphotos.berkeley.edu/fauna/sci-Amphibian.html. Search through the Leptopelis, if you don't find it, then try Hyperolius, Afrixalus, or Heterixalus. Get back to us if you are unsuccessful.

    Leptopelis boulengeri (Victoria Forest Treefrog)
    This looks very close, let us know what you think.

    You can rule out Hyperolius, they have horizontally elliptical pupils.
