Herpetofauna - One Life's List

Great Plains Narrowmouth Toad
Gastrophryne olivacea

Val Verde Co., Texas. May 23, 1997.
 

 

 

 We heard large numbers of these plain little frogs calling in the raodside ditches of west Texas - their call is like a high-pitched sheep bleating.  We managed to find one on the road but missed an opportunity for a picture.

Here are a couple Kansas specimens from a 2004 trip.
