ID Please

[SethD]

I just IDed your and now I am thinking this is the same frog, Hyla squirella.

I don't think this particular one is a squirrel tree frog. Almost positive it isn't actually. Squirrel tree frogs are native to this area and the body shape and often the coloration resembles a green tree frog quite strongly. This frog does not. The body shape and general look of this frog remind me of nothing so much as a peculiarly colored gray tree frog. In the first pic of the dorsal view it seems as if you you can see a hint of the patterning that would appear on the back of a normal gray tree frog though it is greatly reduced. The 1 1/4 size would also be within the size range of an adult male gray although towards the smaller end. As such I would lean towards it either being a aberrantly patterned gray tree frog or some form of uncommonly imported tropical species that I am not able to identify. I am pretty sure it isn't any other type of north american tree frog though.

I feel 75% sure on my ID, on Jessicas 100%, and this one is very similar to hers. I was stumped with hers at first but when I did a little reading in the Audubon field guide I came to the conclusion that Jessica's was indeed Hyla squirella. There is a brown morph as well as a green morph. There's a picture in the book that identical to hers.
This frog is very similar to hers, very similar. The side view pictures looks a little short in stature to be Hyla squirella, but the other two look right.

Oh I agree with you on the other one, but if you look at the "neck" thickness on this one it doesn't seem to be proportioned right to be a squirrel. They have thinner necks like a green tree frog. This one has a thicker neck.

Yeah, i'm hesitant to settle on Hyla squirella. Most have a white upper lip, which I don't see on this one. Also, the body doesn't quite seem right. That being said, I am pretty sure it is some sort of American Hylid, maybe something like a Canyon Tree Frog? (Hyla arenicolor)

Maybe this one just works out more.

LOL, you never know. I don't think it looks like a squirrel tree frog but since I am not completely sure what it is I wouldn't argue the point to strenuously, I would just say it doesn't have the body shape of a typical squirrel tree frog. I agree with what you said earlier about the call probably being the easiest way of pinpointing it. If it is a north american species the call would be relatively easy to identify.

I'd have to agree on the body shape. It looks a little stocky for a Squirrel TF.
