EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the vibrant beauty of a Shreves Sarayacu treefrog calling out in the heart of the Amazon rainforest. With its strikingly colorful skin and mesmerizing eyes, this South American amphibian stands out amidst the lush greenery and diverse fauna surrounding it. The Shreves Sarayacu treefrog, scientifically known as Dendropsophus sarayacuensis, is native to Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Venezuela. This particular specimen was photographed in Yasuni National Park in Ecuador's Amazon rainforest – a biodiverse haven teeming with life. As you gaze at this image, you can almost hear the frog's croaking call reverberating through the dense foliage. Its throat expands as it vocalizes from its unique vocal sac – an adaptation that allows for amplified sound production during mating season. The intricate details of its single eye and delicate skin membrane are beautifully captured by Dr Morley Read's lens. The bright colors on its body serve as both camouflage and communication within their habitat. This photograph not only showcases the stunning beauty of this ecologically important species but also highlights our planet's rich biodiversity. It serves as a reminder of why we must continue to protect these fragile ecosystems for future generations to appreciate and study.
