Pleasent bush frog

Raorchestes blandus

Roarchestes blandus or the Anamalai bush frog is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to India. Scientists have observed it in the Western Ghat mountains, between 45 and 806 meters above sea level.

This frog is found in evergreen forests at low to middle elevations. It lives in the understorey and seems to require that level of the forest to be intact. This frog breeds through direct development with no free-swimming tadpole stage.
