Tlalocohyla
''Tlalocohyla'' is a genus of frogs in the family Hylidae, also known as rain treefrogs or Middle American yellow-bellied treefrogs. They occur in Middle America between Mexico and Costa Rica. This genus was created in 2005 following a major revision of the Hylidae. The five species in this genus were previously placed in the genus ''Hyla ''Hyla'' is a genus of frogs in the tree frog family Hylidae.

Mahogany Tree Frog
The mahogany tree frog (''Tlalocohyla loquax'') is a species of frog in the family Hylidae found in Belize, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, and Nicaragua. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, subtropical or tropical moist montane forests, freshwater marshes, intermittent freshwater marshes, pastureland, rural gardens, and heavily degraded former forests. It is threatened by habitat loss. The adult male frog measures 33 to 45 mm in snout-vent length and the adult female frog 38 to 47 mm. This frog has webbed skin on all four feet. This frog has bright yellow color on its back and some bright red near its vent and sides. This frog can change color, appearing yellow and orange at night and almost white during the day. This frog is nocturnal. The female frog lays eggs in deep bodies of water, about 250 per clutch. The eggs adhere to surface plants. After the tadpoles hatch, they swim downward. This frog is not in danger of dying out ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Godman's Tree Frog
Godman's tree frog (''Tlalocohyla godmani'') is a species of frog in the family Hylidae endemic to Mexico, where it is found in Veracruz and adjacent areas of Puebla. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist forests and intermittent rivers. Duellman states they occur in the coastal lowlands and foothills up to elevations of about 900 meters and inhabit broad-leafed evergreen forest with a well defined dry season.Duellman, W. E. 2001. ''The Hylid Frogs of Middle America'', Vol. I & II. Contributions to Herpetology. Vol. 18.

Habitat and distribution Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forests, intermittent river A river is a natural flowing watercourse, usually freshwater, flowing towards an ocean, sea, lake or another river.

It ranges from central Sinaloa southwards along the Pacific lowlands to southern Oaxaca, and inland in the Balsas-Tepalcatepec Basin Guerrero, Morelos, and Puebla states. It is found at elevations from sea level to 1,332 meters. Conservation It is threatened by habitat loss.The frog's distribution is caused by abiotic and biotic factors as well as, the availability of resources and characteristics of reproductive sites.

Hylinae
Hylinae is a large subfamily of "tree frogs", family Hylidae. Classification The contents of this subfamily vary substantially according to the source. The Amphibian Species of the World follows the revision by Duellman and colleagues from 2016 based on molecular data and delimits the subfamily more narrowly than before, treating parts of former Hylinae as their own subfamilies. Following this classification, there were 18 genera totaling 174 species in the end of 2020. They are found North, Central, and the northmost South America, much of temperate Eurasia, Japan, and extreme northern Africa, however, only ''Hyla'' is found outside the Americas. The Wikipedia is following this classification. The AmphibiaWeb follows an older classification defining Hylinae more broadly, with several hundred species. At the end of 2020, the AmphibiaWeb lists 42 genera totaling 737 species. Amphibian Species of the World At the end of 2020, the Amphibian Species of the World includes the follo ...

Hylidae
Hylidae is a wide-ranging family of frogs commonly referred to as "tree frogs and their allies". However, the hylids include a diversity of frog species, many of which do not live in trees, but are terrestrial or semiaquatic. Taxonomy and systematics The earliest known fossils that can be assigned to this family are from the Cretaceous of India and the state of Wyoming in the United States. The common name of "tree frog" is a popular name for several species of the family Hylidae. However, the name "treefrog" is not unique to this family, also being used for many species in the family Rhacophoridae. The following genera are recognised in the family Hylidae: * Subfamily Hylinae ** Tribe Cophomantini *** '' Aplastodiscus'' – canebrake treefrogs *** ''Boana'' – gladiator treefrogs *** ''Bokermannohyla'' *** ''Hyloscirtus'' *** ''Myersiohyla'' *** ''Nesorohyla'' *** '' "Hyla" nicefori'' ** Tribe Dendropsophini ***''Dendropsophus'' *** '' Julianus'' *** ''Lysapsus'' ...

Darrel Frost
Darrel Richmond Frost (born 1951) is an American herpetologist and systematist. He was previously head curator of herpetology at the American Museum of Natural History, as well as president of both the Society for the Study of Amphibians and Reptiles (1998) and the American Society of Ichthyologists and Herpetologists (2006). Four taxa are named in his honor: the toad genus '' Frostius'' (which includes Frost's toad), the tree frog '' Dendropsophus frosti'', Darrel's chorus frog ''Microhyla darreli'', and Frost's arboreal alligator lizard '' Abronia frosti''. Life Frost became interested in animals after witnessing his father kill a rattlesnake at the age of four. He earned a B.S. in Biology from the University of Arizona in 1973, an M.S. in Zoology from Louisiana State University in 1978, and a Ph.D. in Ecology and Systematics from the University of Kansas in 1988. He became an adjunct professor at Columbia University in 2000. In 1990, Frost was appointed Assistant Curator of H ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Frog
A frog is any member of a diverse and largely Carnivore, carnivorous group of short-bodied, tailless amphibians composing the order (biology), order Anura (ανοὐρά, literally ''without tail'' in Ancient Greek). The oldest fossil "proto-frog" ''Triadobatrachus'' is known from the Early Triassic of Madagascar, but molecular clock, molecular clock dating suggests their split from other amphibians may extend further back to the Permian, 265 Myr, million years ago. Frogs are widely distributed, ranging from the tropics to subarctic regions, but the greatest concentration of species diversity is in tropical rainforest. Frogs account for around 88% of extant amphibian species. They are also one of the five most diverse vertebrate orders. Warty frog species tend to be called toads, but the distinction between frogs and toads is informal, not from Taxonomy (biology), taxonomy or evolutionary history. An adult frog has a stout body, protruding eyes, anteriorly-attached tongue, limb ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Middle America (Americas)
Middle America is a subregion in the middle latitudes of the Americas. It usually includes Mexico, the 7 countries of Central America, and the 13 island countries and 18 territories of the Caribbean. Together with Northern America, they form the continent of North America. Colombia and Venezuela of South America are sometimes included in this subregion. The Caribbean is occasionally excluded from this subregion while Bermuda and The Guianas are infrequently included. Geography Physiographically, Middle America marks the territorial transition between Northern America and South America, connecting yet separating the two.Gonzalez, Joseph. 2004"Middle America: Bridging Two Continents"(ch. 17). ''The Complete Idiot's Guide to Geography.'' () New York: Alpha Books; pp. 213–7 On the west, the Middle American mainland comprises the tapering, isthmian tract of the American landmass between the southern Rocky Mountains in the southern United States and the northern tip of the ...
