These were among the smallest frogs Ive ever seen. Four or five of them could fit on a dime.
We found these in a mostly dry muddy swamp. They were very hard to photograph, because they wouldnt stay in one place for more than a few seconds, and after hopping they would blend in with the dark background nearly perfectly.
Ive written up an account of this three-week trip to Australia here.
