Hyla lanciformis, Amazonian tree frog
Hyla lanciformis, a species of tree frog native to the Amazon rainforest. Like most tree frogs, this large species has specially adapted sucking discs at the ends of the fingers, allowing it to hold on to branches and tree trunks. Normally uncommon in primary rainforest, H. lanciformis is found in greater numbers where the forest has been disturbed by man, by road building or colonization, for example. Photographed in Ecuador

This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of Hyla lanciformis, an Amazonian tree frog native to the lush rainforests of the Amazon. With its vibrant colors and unique features, this species exemplifies the wonders of nature's diversity. The large size of H. lanciformis is complemented by its remarkable adaptation - specially designed sucking discs at the ends of its fingers. These incredible appendages enable it to effortlessly cling onto branches and tree trunks, showcasing its mastery in arboreal habitats. While typically rare in undisturbed primary rainforest areas, this enchanting amphibian thrives where human activities have altered their natural habitat. Whether due to road construction or colonization efforts, these disturbances create opportunities for greater numbers of H. lanciformis to flourish. Captured in Ecuador by Science Photo Library, this photograph not only highlights the intricate details and striking patterns on this tree frog but also serves as a reminder of our impact on fragile ecosystems like the Amazon rainforest. It offers a glimpse into the delicate balance between human presence and wildlife survival.
