- Total length :
up to about 42 mm

tadpoles look shaped like a black cello.
From 8-10 cm body length some Tree frog larvae become oval, then
recognizable by the obviously spherical, unspotted golden belly.
Tree frog tadpoles like to float at the water surface. Seen in the
front they have two small vertical lines on the snout (Photo).
