  • The Dainty Tree Frog (Litoria gracilenta) is a petite and charming tree frog, growing to about 4.5 cm in length. Its back is lime green, fading to a bright yellow belly, with bold yellow sides and matching yellow lips. A pale yellow or green stripe extends from the nose across the eye, while the thighs display maroon or purple-brown hues. Its burnt-orange eyes stand out, and the fingers are roughly three-quarters webbed, while the toes are fully webbed—both bearing large discs.

    This arboreal frog inhabits eastern Queensland down into north-eastern New South Wales and is often seen after rain in forested wetlands, woodland, and gardens. Though primarily rainforest-associated, it frequently appears in suburban areas and is sometimes inadvertently transported on fruit shipments.

    Males form noisy choruses in spring and summer after rain, emitting a long, growl-like call. Eggs are laid in clear jelly masses attached to vegetation near water, and tadpoles develop over about 14 weeks. A resilient species, the Dainty Tree Frog is classified as Least Concern.
