Distribution color morphs of Red-eyed tree frog
Though the main coloring of Agalychnis callidryas is consistent, there are some variations in morphs across the geographical range of the species. Red-eyed tree frogs have variation in the color of their side stripes, which in Costa Rica and Panama specifically includes blue, blue/red, orange and purple.[9] There are several hypotheses for the reason behind the existence of these color morphs.
