Litoria watjulumensis
—
Watjulum Frog
Also known as:
Watjulum Mission Treefrog, Wotjulum Frog, Giant Rocketfrog, Large Rocketfrog
This frog was hopping about in the leaf litter on a dry night. The only herps we had seen earlier that night were the notorious Cane Toads, so I was quite happy to see any native frog.
Ive written up an account of this three-week trip to Australia here.
