Description
Rhacophorus is a genus of frogs in the shrub frog family (Rhacophoridae) which together with the related Hylidae makes up the true tree frogs. They live in India, Japan, Madagascar, Africa, and Southeast Asia. "Amphibian Species of the World 5.6" lists 81 species.
These frogs have long toes with strong webbing between them, enabling the animals to slow their fall to a glide, a form of arboreal locomotion known as 'parachuting'. They are therefore among the anurans commonly known as "flying frogs" (Wikipedia).
Original donated to a local Zoo.
Complete 1998 after 14.40 hours spread over 9 days.
