Searching for frogs in Florida’s Ashton Biological Preserve
I spent the last couple days in northern Florida at the Ashton Biological Preserve, which is slightly west of Gainesville. It may be winter but I found many amazing amphibians, including the Pine Woods Treefrog (Hyla femoralis), Squirrel Treefrog (Hyla squirella), Southern Toad (Bufo terrestris), the non-native Greenhouse Frog (Eleutherodactylus planirostris), Southern Leopard Frog (Rana sphenocephalus), Florida Cricket Frog (Acris gryllus dorsalis), American Bullfrog (Lithobates catesbeianus), Southern Spring Peeper (Pseudacris crucifer bartramiana), and the elusive Florida Gopher Frog (Rana areolata aesopus).
