The northern cricket frog (Acris crepitans) is a species of small hylid frog native to the United States and northeastern Mexico. These frogs are majorly in grey, green, and brown color with blotching patterns.
Cricket frogs, genus Acris, are small, North American frogs of the family Hylidae. [1] [2] They occur in northern Mexico , the United States east of the Rocky Mountains, and in southern Ontario, Canada. [1] They are more aquatic than other members of the family, and are generally associated with permanent bodies of water with surface vegetation.
The average life span for this frog is about one year, which is why the species is considered to be short-lived. Little is known about the interactions and basic ecology, even though populations are decreasing. [3] Blanchard's cricket frog was formerly considered to be a subspecies of the northern cricket frog.
