Arizona Treefrog
| Additional Frog and Toad Information Frog Pictures Types of Frogs |
The green body and dark stripes along the eye give the Arizona tree frog (Hyla eximia) an appearance similar to other small Hyla species.
They are mountain dwelling tree frogs, found near streams and other water bodies in central Arizona. There's no mistaking them for any other frog in their range.
Their high altitude habitat means they are usually active only during the late spring and summer.
The Arizona Treefrog is the state amphibian of Arizona.
