Amphibians ~ Microhylid Frogs ~ Saffron Bellied Frog

The saffron bellied frog is a tiny but pretty microhylid species. The back and sides is blue with small white spots while the limbs are brownish with dark bars. The belly is dark brown with large white or yellowish cells that often overlap with each other.

This species can be found in lowland to mid-level rainforest on the forest floor, but often, can be found perched on low vegetation. Their call is somewhat a mixture between a growl and a chirp. In Southeast Asia, this frog has been found in Peninsular Malaysia, Borneo and the Philippines.
