Key Identification Features
- graminea does not have recessed ears, a feature previously thought to be important for ultrasonic hearing.
- The frog's base coloration ranges from creamy-brown, buff, greyish-brown, and reddish-brown to olive-grey, with rather indistinct blotches of greenish-brown or brown.
- It can be distinguished from the common frog (Rana temporaria) by its smaller size, less pointed snout, and less distinct markings.
- This color is most commonly seen on the underside of the legs, lower abdomen, and groin, and sometimes extends up onto the flanks, though not all individuals have distinct ventral yellow coloring.
