    1. Reviewed by Michael Benard    Oct 29, 2006

    Action: changed name from "Rana clamitans" to "Rana catesbeiana "

    Reviewer's comments:
         "This animal is clearly a bullfrog (Rana catesbeiana), because it lacks clear dorsolateral ridges. Green frogs (Rana clamitans) have dorsolateral ridges that run from the posterior edge of each eye down the back of the frog."
