I really do not appreciate sitting frogs in pictures. They always seem to be in pain and anatomically it make sense! Like, they are sitting on their vertebrae, not treir pelvis

Oh this is a nice one! "A. barbouri was called the stream form of A. texanum (Petranka 1982). This is in reference to their habitat, where A. texanum inhabits pond areas and A. barbouri inhabits stream areas." Nice example of if there is one species, there can be two (but Vice-Versa is also true...)

This very interesting species occurs in Borneo and is formally described only in its type locality, in a 2013 paper. Having that sad, apparently they have been ID for all the island, and this Inat observation supposedly captured its twittering (ironic?) call. www.inaturalist.org/observations...
