Ecology & Behaviour 3
As I mentioned the arborea in latin name stands for tree-dwelling. As this frog is not living on trees it can be often found on branches of bushes. It breeds in shallow, nutritionaly rich, exposed pools.

Rosničku netřeba dlouho představovat. Obvykle ji můžeme pozorovat na keřích a stromech u potoků a tůní. Je to neobvykle hlučné zvíře, které lze slyšet na několik km daleko. Je charakteristická svítivě zeleným zbarvením těla a hlavy s červenými prsty vybavenými přísavkami.
