- Aquatic, arboreal
- Red List
- Least Concern
Longer than only 14% of all species in Hylidae anyone has measured.
The bar is the rank itself: its length is the share of the family this animal exceeds. The chart below is the family’s real spread, on a logarithmic scale because body length here runs from 16.5 to 165 mm. The solid rule is this animal. Every bar is a count of real species, and nothing on this figure is estimated.

Keeping one

- Water, at least 6 cm deep
- 6 × 3cm
Minimum, and for two animals — which is how the standard states it. Bigger is always better. Around 28 cm tall on average.
The standard gives 10 × 5 body lengths of land and 2 × 1 of water, for two animals.
For each further animal the standard asks for another 6 × 6 cm of land and 3 × 3 cm of water.
Swiss Tierschutzverordnung (TSchV), SR 455.1, Anhang 2, Tabelle 6 — legally binding minimum enclosure sizes for amphibians, given as multiples of total body length and stated for two animals.
From this animal’s own snout-vent length, which for a frog is its body length of 1 in (28 mm) — how this is worked out.

These are not gaps in our research. No scientific dataset records them for this species — and saying so is information you cannot get from a reference that simply leaves a field out.
