Record details

   [ Record 1 of 10 ]   
:   3805
Province:   KwaZulu-Natal
Country:   South Africa
Locus:   2930AA
Observer:   Peacock F.
Date of record:   2014-11-24
Number of photos:   1
Notes:   Several calling in general area from puddles with sharper, more insect-like and almost trilling call compared to boettgeri, which we heard on the same day but not at the same site. This individual appeared rather small for the genus. The subarticular tubercle seemed to be split, although not very prominently. Underside had only faint dark mottling. I can probably dig up more photos if necessary.
