It's a Foam Nest Frog (Chiromantis xerampelina). I just came back from South Africa myself, but being the beginning of Winter I didn't see many amphibians. Nice photo; I assume it was taken at night, these frogs turn almost white in the daytime. Best regards,

Hi Ignacio,
Yes it was photographed at night close to our dining table where it was catching insects attracted by the lamps. It was not at all bothered by us taking a very close look at it. Thank you for your help. Regards, Widus |
