Comments on: Frog Species of the Perth Metropolitan Area and their Habitat Requirements http://afrogpond.com Native Frogs in Your Own Backyard Sun, 02 Oct 2011 09:32:15 +0000 hourly 1 By: Elise Bekele http://afrogpond.com/frog-species-of-the-perth-metropolitan-area-and-their-habitat-requirements/#comment-7294 Elise Bekele Sun, 19 Jun 2011 13:21:20 +0000 http://afrogpond.com/?page_id=58#comment-7294 Hi, My son discovered about 20 small (2mm-diameter) transparent eggs (no foam, no jelly with them) while sweeping up the damp leaf litter in our driveway. Could anyone please help us identify whether they are frog eggs? We've scanned through various websites of egg-laying patterns, etc, but haven't found a match. Mostly, it seems frogs or froglets need water of some depth and not just damp conditions. Any advice would be great. Thank you! Hi,

Most of the frogs I can identify but there's a small (tiny) black frog with white stripes that I can't find any info on. Anybody know?
