In the first picture, the size and markings on the frog being held appears to be very much like a Limnodynastes tasmaniensis, not a Crinia signifera

Interesting! I think there were some L. tasmaniensis calling nearby. Just waiting on verification from my FrogID submission

You can submit your recordings to the CNM as well - I am also surprised by the 2 very different looking species- maybe mistaken identity?? Awesome shots- would I be able to use your photo for my training material??

Thanks Anke, yes you can use it :) I have uploaded audio recordings to CNM but I like how the FrogID app can provide possible species. I'll go back tonight and do some recordings on the NatureMapr app.
