Rhacophorus pseudomalabaricus
Rhacophorus pseudomalabaricus is a tree frog that inhabits the forests of the Western Ghats in India. It can glide between trees for up to ten meters thanks to wide webbing on its feet.
This species differs from related frogs by its unique webbing structure on the legs and characteristic coloration. It is important for the forest ecosystem because it eats insects and serves as food for snakes and birds.
Quickly ejects a sticky tongue to catch prey.
