Day 125. Yellow Throated Frog.

You can always hear these tiny frogs when visiting the tropical house at Marwell. Today I got lucky and actually managed to picture one.
Only the female frogs are yellow-throated. The males’ throats are usually grey, turning to black when attracting a mate. Both sexes have a brown body with dark mottled sides.
Yellow-throated frogs are sometimes referred to as cryptic forest frogs or cryptic poison frogs. Yellow-throated frogs, however, are aromobatidae meaning they are less toxic than the related poison dart frog.
