australian morphs of whites tree frogs(pics!)

hi everyone, was reading through some of the old posts and saw there are a few debating the "blue" phase australian whites vs the green PNG. i thought poeple might find it interesting to know that there are in fact more than one colour form of whites in australia, and they are notably different. those from the east are the well known blue phase. they have a blue undertone and pink thighs. western whites from the kimberly lack the blue undertone, insteed having a more yellow to orange tone, with bright orange thighs and armpits. interestingly this is also found in the very similar splendid tree frogs also found in the kimberly (see third pic). ive posted some pics of frogs from my collection to demonstrate (unfortunaly the one of their thighs was taken when they were just out of hibernation so the colours arnt as bright as usual, but you get the idea.

Haha...tough on that one.


Nzdragons: Are you aware of the other 2 Litoria species? I wonder if Litoria splendida ever got out of Australia.

ill be sending some as soon as you send me some of those dart frogs of yours (very nice)

"Nzdragons: Are you aware of the other 2 Litoria species? I wonder if Litoria splendida ever got out of Australia."

by the other 2 species do you mean the red eyed and white lipped tree frogs? i have not kept them myself, although i have experience with green and golden bells(aurea), whistling tree frogs(ewingii) and litoria raniformis, all of which are very easy to keep, although the greens and splendids would have to be my favorites.

i have not heard of splendida outside of australia, which is a shame as they are an easy and fun species to keep. i was surprised to see just how big they do grow. the one pictured below is only just over half of its adult length, and is about 16 weeks old.

As soon as my darts start breeding I would be glad to trade a few to you!!! My daughters VIV could use a few more tree frogs!!!!! Those FAT dumpys of hers need some more company in there with them to give them some exercise.
