The Angiana tree frog (Litoria angiana) is a species of frog in the subfamily Pelodryadinae. It is found in New Guinea. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forests and rivers.
There are several different polymorphs, with each given a different name in the Kalam language of Papua New Guinea [2] Examples include:
Litoria is a genus of hylid tree frogs, sometimes collectively referred to as Australasian treefrogs.
The Australian green tree frog, also known as simply green tree frog in Australia, White's tree frog, or dumpy tree frog, is a species of tree frog native to Australia and New Guinea, with introduced populations in the United States and New Zealand, though the latter is believed to have died out. It is morphologically similar to some other members of its genus, particularly the magnificent tree frog (R. splendida) and the white-lipped tree frog (R. infrafrenata).
The Blue Mountains tree frog also called the variegated river tree frog is a species of tree frog in the subfamily Pelodryadinae. It is endemic to southeastern Australia and is found in eastern Victoria and in southeastern New South Wales. The Jenolan Caves tree frog, a population formerly separated as Litoria jenolanensis, is nowadays included in this species.
The southern brown tree frog, also known as the brown tree frog, whistling tree frog, or Ewing's tree frog, is a species of tree frog native to Australia: most of southern Victoria, eastern South Australia, southern New South Wales from about Ulladulla—although this species is reported to occur further north—and throughout Tasmania including the Bass Strait Islands, in which state it is the most frequently encountered frog. It has been introduced to New Zealand, where it can be locally abundant.
Roth's tree frog, or the northern laughing tree frog, is a species of tree frog native to northern Australia and southern Papua New Guinea. Roth's tree frog is a common frog, closely related to Peron's tree frog and Tyler's tree frog.
Beck's tree frog is a species of frog in the subfamily Pelodryadinae. It is endemic to Papua New Guinea. Its natural habitats are tropical moist montane forests, grasslands and streams. It was first described by the British biologist and herpetologist Arthur Loveridge in 1945 and is named in honour of the American ornithologist and explorer Rollo Beck who led the Whitney South Seas Expedition in the 1920s, collecting bird and other specimens from thousands of islands in the South Pacific.
Bulmer's tree frog is a species of frog in the subfamily Pelodryadinae. It is found in Papua New Guinea and possibly West Papua in Indonesia. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forests and rivers. The frog is named after Ralph Bulmer, an anthropologist who studied the Kalam language, people, and culture of Papua New Guinea.
"Litoria" castanea, also known as the yellow-spotted tree frog, New England swamp frog, tablelands bell frog, or yellow-spotted bell frog, is a species of frog in the subfamily Pelodryadinae. It is a critically endangered species of frog that is endemic to south-eastern Australia.
The Cooloola sedge frog or Cooloola tree frog is a species of frog in the subfamily Pelodryadinae.
The Wendessi tree frog is a species of frog in the subfamily Pelodryadinae.
The Oruge tree frog is a species of frog in the subfamily Pelodryadinae. It is found in New Guinea. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forests and rivers.
The black-dotted tree frog is a species of frog in the subfamily Pelodryadinae. It is found in New Guinea and some adjacent islands, including Yapen, its type locality, and Gebe in the Maluku Islands. Its natural habitats are tropical moist lowland forests and slow flowing rivers.
Kalam is a Kalam language of Papua New Guinea. It is closely related to Kobon, and shares many of the features of that language. Kalam is spoken in Middle Ramu District of Madang Province and in Mount Hagen District of Western Highlands Province.
Litoria spartacus is a species of frog in the subfamily Pelodryadinae of the family Hylidae. It is endemic to Papua New Guinea and is only known from two localities within the Kikori Integrate Conservation and Development Project Area in the Southern Highlands Province. It has affinities to Litoria macki and Litoria spinifera but has a smaller size and more extensively webbed hands and less tuberculate body.
Mareku's tree frog is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. It is endemic to Indonesia. Scientists have seen it in the Wondiwoi Mountains in Papua Province.
Litoria christianbergmanni is a frog in the family Hylidae. It is endemic to Indonesia and has been found in the Fakfak Mountains at 860 meters above sea level.
Nyctimystes sauroni is a species of tree frog and an endemic to Papua New Guinea Scientifically, it is in the subfamily Pelodryadinae. It is Scientists know it solely from the Kikori Integrate Conservation and Development Project area.
Nyctimystes pallidofemora is a species of tree frog in the subfamily Pelodryadinae, endemic to Papua New Guinea. Scientists disagree about whether this frog is best placed in the genus Nyctimystes or the genus Litoria.
Nyctimystes nullicedens is a species of tree frog in the subfamily Pelodryadinae. It is endemic to Papua New Guinea and has been found on the south-western side of Mount Obree, at 550 meters above sea level.
Litoria richardsi is a species of frog in the family Hylidae, endemic to Papua New Guinea and Indonesia. Scientists have seen it about 80 m above sea level.
