Fig. 5D Painted Bull Frog

Examined specimens.

Four specimens were collected from SRF (Juvenile: UMTZC1414, SVL = 15 mm; Males: UMTZC1082 and UMTZC1415, SVL = 57-62 mm) and SAP (Male: UMTZC1056 = 45 mm).

Identification.

Morphological characters of the specimens agreed well with the description by Berry (1975) and Davis et al. (2018). Size (SVL: 15 mm, n = juvenile; 45-62 mm, n = 3 males); stocky body; snout rounded; tympanum distinct; finger tips with expended discs; toes webbed at base; dorsum skin smooth; dorsum colouration medium to dark brown with broad orange, black-edged, or pale stripes which extend from head along each side of body.

Remarks.

Kaloula pulchra was ubiquitous in open and recreational areas in SLF, with a tendency to be encountered hiding in irrigation ditches, drains, and toilets. The calls of adult males were heard during and after the heavy rains.
