Foam Nest frogs, these frogs are easily identifiable by their presence in trees and their raised "hip-bones". The two inner fingers are opposable to the outer two, which aids climbing. These frogs have significant in the form of uric acid, which minimizes water loss. The ability to change color from a cryptic variation (in deep shade and at night) to almost snow white when in direct sunlight. The ability to withstand dehydration by reabsorbing water quickly through the belly skin where there is a large concentration of blood vessels just below the skin. If nearby water is available, the frog will sweat droplets that create evaporative cooling. It is possible that the skin is also more "water resistant" than in other frogs.

These adaptations allow the foam nest frog to hibernate for long periods in exposed positions and even rest in direct sunlight.
