摘要: Miniature radio-transmitters were used to follow 13 Green-thighed Frogs for between one and five nights around their breeding ponds during the postbreeding period. Individuals recorded move a median distance of 5 metres per night with maximum 50 in night. All tracked individuals remained within available areas forest. located at found low vegetation 59% time, heights 10 cm 150 above ground. Daytime shelter sites either under leaf litter or thick vegetation. Cover, form dense vegetation, may be critical requirement survival Greenthighed Frog.
