[edit] Description
Squirrel tree frogs are small frogs, about 1.5 inches in length as adults. They are found in many color variations, but most commonly they are green and look very much like the green tree frog (Hyla cinerea). They can also be varying shades of yellow or brown, sometimes with white or brown blotching.
