Agalychnis Callidryas
''Agalychnis callidryas'', commonly known as the red-eyed tree frog, is a species of frog in the subfamily Phyllomedusinae. It is native to forests from Central America to north-western South America. This species is known for its bright coloration, namely its vibrant green body with blue and yellow stripes on the side. It has a white underside, brightly red and orange colored feet, and is named after its distinctive bright red eyes. ''Agalychnis callidryas'' is an arboreal frog with long limbs and webbed toes. They mate and reproduce near ponds, and are therefore found in lowland wet areas found in tropical forests. Like all the frogs in its genus, they are nocturnal and do most of their hunting for insects at night. The males of this species are smaller than the females, and they display non-random mating patterns which suggest female choice for specific types of male. Despite its bright coloration, the red-eyed tree frog is not poisonous. Its bright coloration can thus be mo ...

Agalychnis Medinae
''Agalychnis medinai'', also known as the Rancho Grande leaf frog, is a species of frog in the subfamily Phyllomedusinae. It is endemic to the central part of the Venezuelan Coastal Range. ''Agalychnis medinai'' inhabits cloud forests at elevations of above sea level. It is a rarely spotted arboreal frog, usually seen in temporal or permanents pools, its breeding habitat, during the wet season. It can also live in secondary forests near artificial bodies of water. It is threatened by forest loss and extraction of surface water. Its range overlaps with the Yurubí National Park The Yurubí National Park ( es, Parque nacional Yurubí) is a protected area with the status of national park in the north of the South American country of Venezuela. It was founded on March 18, 1960 in Yaracuy State created to protect the Yurub ... and, at least formerly, with the Henri Pittier National Park, where its type locality is located – it has not been sighted there during the last deca ...

Phyllomedusinae
Phyllomedusinae is a subfamily of hylid tree frogs found in the Neotropics commonly called leaf frogs. Formerly, they were often considered as their own family, Phyllomedusidae. The subfamily is considered to be the sister group to the Australian treefrogs (Pelodryadinae), a subfamily of frogs known from Australia and New Guinea, despite being very geographically separated from them. The common ancestor of both subfamilies is thought to have lived in early Cenozoic South America, where the Phyllomedusinae still live, with the two families diverging from one another during the Eocene. The ancestors of Pelodryadinae likely colonized Australasia from South America via Antarctica, which at the time was not yet frozen over. The clade comprising both subfamilies is sister to the Hylinae, from which they diverged in the early Paleogene. Taxonomy The subfamily Phyllomedusidae contains the following genera: * ''Agalychnis'' (14 species) * ''Callimedusa'' (six species) * ''Cruziohyla' ...

Agalychnis Terranova
''Agalychnis terranova'' is a species of frog endemic to Colombia. It has been observed between 240 and 900 meters above sea level. The adult frog measures 4.7 cm snout-vent length. The female frogs are larger than the male frogs. This frog has green, warty skin on its dorsum. This frog resembles other frogs in the genus ''Agalychnis'' excepting that its sides are orange with white spots rather than blue. This frog is nocturnal Nocturnality is an animal behavior characterized by being active during the night and sleeping during the day. The common adjective is "nocturnal", versus diurnal meaning the opposite. Nocturnal creatures generally have highly developed sens .... This species is classified as near threatened. Its numbers are threatened by habitat loss, damming, habitat fragmentation, and mining activity. References terranova Amphibians of South America {{Phyllomedusinae-stub ...

Agalychnis Taylori
''Agalychnis taylori'', commonly known as the red-eyed tree frog or Taylor's leaf frog, is a species of frog in the subfamily Phyllomedusinae. It was originally described as a subspecies of ''Agalychnis callidryas'' in 1957. In 1967 it was synonymized with ''Agalychnis callidryas'' by Savage and Heyer. In 2019, it was resurrected and elevated to a full species based on well-supported morphological data. The range of ''Agalychnis taylori'' extends from central Veracruz Veracruz (), formally Veracruz de Ignacio de la Llave (), officially the Free and Sovereign State of Veracruz de Ignacio de la Llave ( es, Estado Libre y Soberano de Veracruz de Ignacio de la Llave), is one of the 31 states which, along with Me ..., Mexico, to west-central Honduras.

Agalychnis Spurrelli
The gliding tree frog (''Agalychnis spurrelli'') is a species of frog in the subfamily Phyllomedusinae. It is found in Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, and Panama. Other common names are the gliding leaf frog, Spurrell's leaf frog, and pink-sided tree frog. The specific name, ''spurrelli'', is in honour of British zoologist Herbert George Flaxman Spurrell. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and intermittent freshwater marshes. It is threatened by habitat loss Habitat destruction (also termed habitat loss and habitat reduction) is the process by which a natural habitat becomes incapable of supporting its native species. The organisms that previously inhabited the site are displaced or dead, thereby .... Description The gliding tree frog grows to a snout to vent length of for males and for females. The head is broad and the eyes are large, with reticulated lower eyelids. The body is slim with smooth skin on the dorsal surface and limbs an ...

Agalychnis Saltator
''Agalychnis saltator'', also known as the parachuting red-eyed leaf frog and misfit leaf frog, is a species of frog in the subfamily Phyllomedusinae. It is found in the Caribbean lowlands from north-eastern Honduras to eastern-central Costa Rica at elevations of asl. Description Male ''Agalychnis saltator'' measure and females in snout–vent length. They have distinctive red eyes with vertical pupils. The dorsum is light or dark leaf green with bluish purple flanks. They have large suction disks and extensive webbing between the fingers and toes.
