Scientific name: Phrynohyas venulosa

Continent: North America, South America
Diet: Insects, especially flies, crickets, beetles and grasshoppers. They are insectivores.
Food & feeding: Carnivore
Habitats: Tropical rainforest, tropical dry forest
Conservation status: Not Threatened
Relatives: Thai tree frog, red-eyed tree frog
Description: This is a tree frog with warty grey skin. Like other tree frogs it has enlarged pads on the end of its fingers and toes that help it stick to leaves and branches. The warty skin contains many glands that release a special mucus.
Lifestyle: These frogs are primarily nocturnal and the marbled milk frogs at Bristol Zoo Gardens can be found in Twilight World- the nocturnal house. At night in urban areas, individuals are sometimes seen clinging to the walls of buildings where they prey on insects that are attracted to electric light. During the dry season, these frogs retreat into holes in trees where they cocoon themselves in mucus and wait for wetter conditions to return.
