These frogs are forest floor leaf-litter mimics. Like many other drab-colored frogs, they have bright "flash colors" hidden on their sides and legs. When the frog suddenly jumps, these bright colors are momentarily visible. This is thought to be an adaptation that can distract predators, buying the frog the instant of extra time it needs to make a getaway.

Beletsky and Leenders spell this name as Rana warszewitschii, but they seem to be in the minority.

These frogs were photographed on a herping trip with GreenTracks. Here is a complete list of the species we found on this GreenTracks trip.
