Isthmohyla debilis

Isthmohyla debilis is a rare species of frog in the family Hylidae. It occurs in the Atlantic slopes of the Cordillera Central and Cordillera Talamanca in Costa Rica and western Panama as well as on the Pacific slopes in southwestern Panama. Common name Isla Bonita treefrog has been suggested for it (the type locality is "Isla Bonita" in Costa Rica).

Appearance

Males grow to 30 mm (1.2 in) and females to 32 mm (1.3 in) in snout–vent length. The snout is moderately long and acutely rounded. The tympanum is distinct but partly covered by the supratympanic fold. The fingers bear comparatively small discs and are about one-third webbed. The toes have discs that are about as large as those on the fingers and are two-thirds webbed. The dorsal color is drab green with small, black flecks, turning white with black flecking on the flanks. There is a dark brown stripe running through the eye, bordered above by a lighter stripe. The upper lip is white. Most specimens have a white spot below the eye. The iris is coppery.
