Sharp snouted day frog

The sharp snouted day frog, or sharp-nosed torrent frog, is an extinct species of frog in the family Myobatrachidae. It was endemic to upland rainforest streams in north-eastern Queensland in Australia.

Description

It was a diurnal, conspicuous and locally abundant species, but a rapid population decline began in 1988. It is considered endangered under Queensland's Nature Conservation Act 1992. The primary cause for its rapid decline is believed to be the disease chytridiomycosis.
