Tiny frog that jumped across my path and hid in leaf litter.
It could be several Platymantis species that I have since researched but the colouration didn't match any photos that I found online. Its size and shape also look very similar to a Leptolalax species that I am more familiar with.
Thanks to Arvin Diesmos of Philippine herpwatch.org who identified it as P. corrugatus.
Found in the 'Man-made Forest' during the day. I was just there for about an hour and these were the most common lizards I saw.
I haven't been able to identify many of the animals I foundin Bohol yet, so any help is much appreciated.

Found in the 'Man-made Forest', this one dashed under a boulder very quickly and I wasn't able to get any more shots.
As with many of my Philippine observations I am not 100% on the identification as online information was scarce and I mostly used just one website for research. I think this is the correct id, but please let me know if you think differently.
Found in the 'Man-made Forest', this one was quite bold and let me get in quite close for some shots.

I found these in most places where I found other frogs and saw a lot along roads between rice paddy fields. Sadly they seem to be very common on Bohol.
In a small marshy area next to the river I found 3 or 4 different frog species amongst the leaves of over-hanging plants. These ones I saw more on the ground along the path leading to the marsh.

In a small marshy area next to the river I found 3 or 4 different frog species, although I believe this is not a rare species I was very excited to find one and wanted to watch it for longer. Unfortunately whilst photographing this one I discovered I'd been standing on an ants nest, they had climbed inside my trousers and were now venting their annoyance on my legs.

Found next to the Loboc river above a frothy egg mass over a small pond.
This one was calling next to a small water-filled plastic container in a goats pen.
