Geocrinia leai (J. J. Fletcher, 1898) | |
Geocrinia leai, sometimes called Lea's frog, is a species in the taxonomic family, Myobatrachidae and is endemic to southwest Australia. As with the other species in the genus Geocrinia , it is restricted to the high rainfall region at the south west of Western Australia; the very same Walpole/Nornalup district occupied by cogenor Geocrinia lutea . Ecology is similar to that of Geocrinia rosea , part of the so-called 'roseate complex'.
