red-eyed treefrog, tree frog, Agalychnis callidryas, found in the lowlands of northeastern and southwestern Costa rica. danaus Nature Center near Fortuna.
This young tree frog has proved to be a bit of a mystery. Note that it still has a remnant of its tadpole tail. The mystery is what is between the tail and the hind leg. Unfortunately, I did not notice the strange deformity until I processed the photo – otherwise I would have spent some additional time with the frog trying to get better views of it. The consensus of my herpetologist friends is that it is likely a limb bud development error. The cause for the limb bud misfire (if that is what it is) could have been due to toxins, injury or parasitism. University of Maryland Central Farm, Maryland.
