Northern dwarf tree frog
The northern dwarf tree frog, dwarf tree frog, lined grass frog, green reed frog, Pandan frog, bicolored grass frog or northern sedge frog (Litoria bicolor)[1] is a tree frog from Australia.[2] It lives all along the coast of northern Australia.[3] Adult frogs are about 3 cm long from nose to rear end. They have a little bit of webbing on their front feet and more webbing on their hind feet.[4] They are green with a bronze stripe over each eye going down their bodies. There is a white stripe under the bronze stripe.[5] The youngest frogs are brown but they turn green as they grow older.[2] They live in wetlands with large numbers of plants in them, sometimes near humans.[2] They lay eggs in small groups attached to plants just under the surface of the water. The tadpoles can grow to 5 cm long and take two and a half months to start becoming frogs.[5][2] References
