Jerry G. Walls.

A beautiful oversized book with literally hundreds of very high quality glossy photographs of these exquisite animals. The photography in this book alone justifies its purchase price. However, the extensive text also includes information about the species, including their habitat range, biology and behavior. (Amazon.co.UK)

Two juvenile P. bicolor.

Although they spend a lot of time on the ground, they are also surprisingly agile for such chunky frogs.

Favourite rootsing spot - all crammed into the brom axils.
