Zhangixalus viridis
Japanese name: オキナワアオガエル
Chinese name: 沖繩樹蛙
English name: Okinawa Tree Frog
Origin: Okinawajima, Iheyajima, Kumejima
From November to May, the breeding calls of the Okinawa Tree Frog can often be heard in the Yambaru areas. Males have yellow bellies, while females have white bellies and are significantly larger in size, making it relatively easy to distinguish between the sexes.
During the peak of the winter breeding season, these frogs frequently move from trees down onto roads, and many individuals are killed by vehicles.
