The Lace-lid Tree Frog (Ranoidea dayi) is a small, elusive tree frog found only in the wet tropics of north-eastern Queensland. Growing to about 50 mm in length, it is coloured rich brown to orange-brown with scattered cream or lichen-like spots. Its belly is cream-white and reticulated, while its arms and legs display faint barring and a subtle fringe. The frog’s most striking feature is its lower eyelid, marked with a lace-like pattern of veins and dots that inspired its common name.
This nocturnal species inhabits fast-flowing creeks in montane rainforest and, occasionally, slower waterways shaded by dense vegetation. Breeding occurs from spring through summer, with peak activity between October and April. Males call from low foliage or rocks beside streams, producing a drawn-out “eeeeeeee” when in chorus or short “ee” calls when alone.
Females attach clumps of up to 100 large, unpigmented eggs to submerged objects. The Lace-lid Tree Frog is listed as Endangered under the IUCN Red List and Vulnerable under Australian conservation laws.
