a Flyinu Frou.

In Java and some other places is
a remarkable flying tree frog, with
a green back, a white belly and a
bright orange colored membrane be-
tween its toes, which are tipped by
circular discs.
Like the chameleon, it can change
its color to suit its surroundings. 1t
feeds at night on insects, and when
disturbed leaps out of the tree and
sails away TO safety. Some observers
call it a frog while others say it is a
tree toad.
The membrane between the toes
probably acts as a parachute, and not
as a flying apparatus. The toe discs,
like similar enlargements on our COM
mon tree toad, must act like suckers
to hold the animal firmly in place
against the trunk or the limb.-St.
