Amphibia    Anura    Hylidae  

Sierran Treefrog
Pseudacris sierra (Jameson, Mackey, and Richmond, 1966)

Current SSAR Comments:
Jadin et al. (2021, Biological Journal of the Linnean Society 132: 612–633) found that P. sierra rather than P. regilla is present in Idaho and Montana, thus greatly expanding the known range of P. sierra. See comment under P. hypochondriaca.

Range maps are based on curated specimens and provided gratis by CNAH.
