Tomato frog
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[Photo] Madagascar Tomato Frog (Dyscophus antongilii). Date 31 July 2005. Author: Alfeus Liman.
The Tomato frog is any one of the three species of genus Dyscophus (family Microhylidae): D. antongilii, D. insularis, or D. guineti. The common name comes from the frog's bright tie-die color. When threatened, a tomato frog puffs up its body. If a predator grabs a tomato frog in its mouth, the frog's skin secretes a thick substance that gums up the predator's eyes and mouth, causing the predator to release the frog to free up its eyes. The gummy substance contains a toxin that occasionally causes allergic reactions in humans. The allergic reaction will not kill a human and the frog secretes it only when frightened.
Species
Dyscophus antongilli (Grandidier, 1877). Madagascar tomato frog, found in Madagascar and threatened due to habitat destruction.
Dyscophus guineti (Grandidier, 1875). False Tomato Frog.
