Hot off the press: Several years of #amphibian #chytrid surveillance in PNG suggests it might still be free of the disease! Critically important considering New Guinea harbours >6% of all #frog species.

How does sloughing, climate change and #chytrid contribute to global amphibian declines? Craig talks about the trade-offs of skin shedding, impact of UV and temp on the physiology of infected frog skin, as well as constipated frogs 🐸 – at Sydney, New South Wales
Check it out! We just released our interview featuring
The University of Queensland's Craig Franklin (@Franklin_EcoLab).

Hammerheads are interesting because it appears that species with shorter cephalofoil lobes are more derived than those with long cephalofoil lobes. The specialized head may have appeared abruptly & was then modified more gradually by evolution. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… – at Sydney, New South Wales

We have a freaky #FrogFriday for you all this week! This Green Tree Frog recently 'swallowed' quite the meal in Sharon’s backyard... Frogs are generalist carnivores, and will try to eat anything that will fit in their mouth, like this unlucky Swallow!

Male #frogs of many species fight over territory.
These Common Eastern Froglets (Crinia signifera) in suburban Sydney have a pretty impressive #wrestling match over the best spot to call. Sound on! #WildOz

Today's amazing #amphibian is the Rockhole #Frog (Litoria meiriana).
This tiny species from northern #Australia can actually hop on water! They're so fast I needed to slow the video down! #WildOz
I like spiders.... until they touch me 😂... So sitting under this big girl was concerning but worth it to get a look at their face. Check out my Instagram (calsphotography12) for more pictures and info on pretty much anything I can get a picture of!
I have found possibly the smallest Graceful Tree Frog I have ever seen, with my pinky nail for scale, after a stroll in my local wetlands. How cute 😍!

Congrats @NiclasLundsgaa1 for his first publication in @conphysjournal finding that UV damage in tadpoles is dependant on environmental temperature! 🐸

Check out our latest paper out now in #EnvironmentalPollution! We found that elevated nitrate levels pose negative effects on 🐟🦞🐸, and exposure to additional stressors tend to enhance these effects. w/@Franklin_EcoLab @r_cramp authors.elsevier.com/a/1aZGv…

Amazing new research led by @britt__mitchell on the impact of urbanisation on the calls of a widespread tree frog.
The national citizen science project @FrogID is already helping understand our unique frog species! Thank you all! @callaghanct @unswbees

These are *NOT* Cane Toads (Rhinella marina), they are native Australian #frogs sometimes mistaken for Cane Toads. Not all Aussie frogs are smooth and green, some can look superficially similar to toads.

UGH! Native #frogs often get confused with the introduced Cane Toad (Rhinella marina) & killed. This is not a Cane Toad, it's a Peron's Tree Frog (Litoria peronii). #WildOz
Report sightings, don't kill, & learn how to identify Cane #Toads here: australianmuseum.net.au/blog…

A green tree frog was observed eating a baby coastal taipan! The frog was bitten multiple times but was still alive and croaking this morning. 🐸

# Volunteer needed for Frog Research #
Bit of change in timing. Still anyone interested in volunteering frog survey at Moree, NSW. Hope I will start it soon. Contact: [email protected] or call 0480105221 or inbox me.

Congratulations @gk_senevirathne ... critically important knowledge to understand tail-loss in frogs, enabling them to jump.. I bet that this is going to be a classic paper..
