Borneo Frogs

These a some of the frogs we found while at a jungle camp on the Kinabantangan River in eastern Sabah.

For anyone interested, there is a great reference site for the frogs and toads of Borneo here: Frogs of Borneo.org

Frilled Treefrog (Rhacophorus appendiculatus)

Brown Bullfrog (Kaloula baleata)

Northern Torrent Frog (Meristogenys orphnocnemis)

Unknown

Mosquitofish (Gambusia holbrooki)

As nice as they look mosquitofish (AKA plague minnow) are one of the worst introduced species we have in south-eastern Australia. Live-bearing and rapid breeder, predatory on native fish, tadpoles and macroinvertebrates, spread disease and generally just nasty.

Short-beaked Echidna (Tachyglossus aculeatus)

Spotted this little fella on a golf course I was doing fish survey work at.
Very cute.
