Western Spotted Frog - Heleioporus albopunctatus
Heleioporus albopunctatus (Myobatrachidae) is a species of fat, globular burrowing frog, with granular skin, rather stubby limbs and toes with only rudiments of webbing. The body is chocolate-brown above; the back, head, sides and limbs are marked with scattered large white or yellow spots.
Endemic to Australia, this chubby frog is largely restricted to coast and ranges of south-western Australia.
