Diagonal Lined Frog

Amphibians ~ True Frogs ~ Diagonal Lined Frog

The diagonal lined frog is a medium large frog with a stout body found in lowland to mid-level rainforest. This frog has a creamy orange colour with a brownish patch around the tympanum. The eyes are whitish with a section facing the back of the body being brown.

The frog gets its name from a series of pale scar-like line markings that run diagonally across the back. The sides of the back are slightly elevated, forming a ridge from the south to the bottom. This frog occurs in Peninsular Malaysia and Southern Thailand in Southeast Asia.
