The American green tree frog is considered monotypic, but clinal variation has been observed from Florida north along the Atlantic coastal plain. This may be attributed to the result of strong selection and/or drift. [4] American green tree frogs prefer to live in open canopy forests with a permanent water source and filled with plentiful ...
