The Granular Glass Frog is found throughout the humid lowlands of Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama. The common name is due to the skin's granular texture. Adults may measure from 23 to 32 millimeters. Granular Glass Frog - Cochranella granulosaUnderneath, the abdomen is transparent and the red ventral vein as well as the intestines are visible. The intestines are covered by a white membrane. In some individuals the red liver may also be visible. They are normally found near fast moving streams, where males call from the upper surfaces of leaves. A male frog typically protects a calling territory, and if a rival male dares trespass, it gets ugly fast! Males have been observed engaging in sumo-style wrestling matches. They hang upside down, on the edge of a leaf, by the tips of their toes while clashing chest to chest and grappling fiercely in an attempt to dislodge each other. It may go on like this for over two hours! http://www.thenighttour.com/alien1/cochranella_granulosa.htm
