Frogs
Frogs belong to a group of animals called amphibians. All Australian amphibians are frogs. There are about 4000 frog species worldwide and Australia has 208 frog species; many of these are endemic - that is, they are found nowhere else in the world. Frogs play a key role in many food webs, both as predators and as prey.

There are two Mixophyes species found in this area. One of the best ways to distinguish them is by differences in eye colour, specifically the irides (irises). In Mixophyes fasciolatus, the iris is dark brown like this specimen, whereas M. iteratus has gold irises.
