Fortpflanzung und Entwicklung

[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]

Males and females begin to move to the breeding sites as early as October, and sometimes as late as January, depending on latitude, cumulative rainfall for the season, and average temperature.[6] Typically, stable minimum temperatures of 42 to 44 °F (5.5 to 6.5 °C) are required to induce breeding. Observations of adult migration are best made on moonlit nights with light rains. The male is thought to defend his territory, once he is in the breeding pond area, using nocturnal displays. In fact, most activity is at night, especially enhanced by periods of light rain. The actual courtship behaviors commence in January in the California part of the range, and as late as March in northerly regions. In any case, the breeding season terminates in July at the latest, and earlier in the drier locales.

Each female produces 200 to 1100 eggs per season, and attaches the egg cluster to submerged vegetation or rotting logs, characteristically seven to 15 cm below the pond surface.[3] Egg clusters are typically about 10 cm in diameter, and may disperse into an irregular form underwater. Eggs hatch in 39 to 45 days, and tadpoles require about 80 days to attain metamorphosis.[8]

Oviposition generally takes place in densely vegetated, shallow portions of wetlands with little current, and in unusual cases, egg masses have been observed in water up to 500 cm in depth.[citation needed] Breeding sites can be either permanent or temporary, with inundation usually necessary into June for successful metamorphosis.[7] The June date is based on Oregon conditions; in Northern California, metamorphosis occurs in late May or early June. Breeding is initiated when water temperatures exceed about 6°C (usually in January), but can be as late as March in the extreme northern part of the range.

Die Weibchen legen zwischen 200 und 1100 Eier pro Saison und kleben die Eipakete an die Vegetation unterhalb der Wasseroberfläche. Dabei werden möglichst tiefe Stellen des Laichgewässers bevorzugt, die nicht so schnell austrocknen können. Aus den Eiern schlüpfen, abhängig von der Wassertemperatur, nach sechs bis 14 Tagen die Kaulquappen.[1]


The tadpoles of Rana aurora are a tan to dark brown color with scattered clumps of golden flecks. The dorsal and ventral tail fins have tiny dark spots and a golden tone. Small tadpoles have a light gold line along the side of the body that disappears as the tadpole grows. The labial tooth row formula, defined as a fraction designating the location and number of labial tooth rows, are 2/3 or 3/4 (Stebbins 2003). The total size of the tadpole before metamorphosis is 50-70 mm (total length) (Dodd 2013).

  • Ololygon tripui auf Scinax tripui

Kaiser FJI hatte ds telefon ab 1900 auf dem Klo, damit es niemand sieht. Er wollte auch keine Oberleitung in der Mariahilfer-Str.

This species of frog is very variable in colour and patterning. It reaches 55 mm in length, has extremely long legs, and is very streamlined. Its dorsal surface is a shade of brown with longitudinal skin folds or warts that are darker in colour than the skin around them. The ventral surface is white and granular. A brown stripe starts from the nostril, goes across the eye, through the tympanum and ends between the armpit and groin. The tympanum is brown with a white circle surrounding it. The thighs are marked with black lines on a yellow background. Throats of breeding males are yellow. Although being a 'tree frog', this species spends most of its life as an adult on land, due to its inability to climb because of its small discs.

Das Verbreitungsgebiet des Raketen-Laubfroschs reicht vom Nordosten des Bundesstaats Western Australia ostwärts über das nördliche Northern Territory bis nach Nord- und Ostqueensland. Im Süden gibt es ein Vorkommen bis Gosford im östlichen New South Wales und weiter südlich ein disjungtes Vorkommen bis Avalon, einen Vorort von Sydney. Im Süden Australiens ist er südliches Neuguinea Lebensraum: Wälder, Sümpfe, Waldland

Ecology and behaviour

[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]

This frog inhabits swamps, ponds, and flooded grasslands in forests and open woodland. The call is a 'wick... wick' repeated several times followed by a 'but... but'; the call may last for several seconds. Males call from spring through early autumn while sitting around the bank of a water body or in shallow water. Breeding increases after rain. This frog can leap 2 m (6.5 ft), roughly 36 times its own length. This would be the equivalent of a 1.8 m (6 ft) human making a jump 64.8 m (105 ft) long.

This species is a member of the rocket frog complex, which includes many species, for example Freycinet's frog (Litoria freycineti) and broad-palmed frog (L. latopalmata). All species in this complex are very agile jumpers and often contain "rocket frog" in the common name and have a duck-like quacking or wicking call. L. nasuta is sympatric with every species in this complex through at least part of its range. The dorsolateral stripes and skin folds on this species are best used to distinguish this species from others in the complex. The Australian wood frog, (Rana daemeli) is physically similar to this species and others in the complex. R. daemeli and L. nasuta both occur in the northern part of the Cape York Peninsula in Queensland.

It is kept as a pet, and in Australia this animal may be kept in captivity with the appropriate permit.
