Spotted marsh frog, Limnodynastes tasmaniensis
Striped marsh frog
The spotted marsh frog is found throughout the north eastern third of Tasmania, where it occurs in farm dams, open woodlands, creeks and coastal wetlands. It also occurs throughout much of southeastern mainland Australia. It grows to a length of 45 mm.
The call, which can be heard in spring and summer, has been likened to two stones being tapped together, 'ick -- ick'.
