Litoria is the most species-rich genus of the Australian tree frogs (Pelodryadidae) and at the same time the only genus of the subfamily Litoriinae . The genus is distributed on the Australian continent including Tasmania , New Guinea , the Bismarck Archipelago , the Lesser Sunda Islands , the Solomon Islands and Timor . Species were introduced by humanson several other islands (e.g. New Caledonia , New Zealand , Guam ).
features
All species of the genus Litoria have long been part of the family of tree frogs considered and there even as the European tree frog ( Hyla arborea ) in the genus Hyla out. All species with the characteristics of the tree frogs living in Australia and New Guinea were later placed in the genus Litoria .
Many species were transferred from the genus Litoria to other genera for phylogenetic reasons, for example to the genera Nyctimystes and Ranoidea from the subfamily Pelodryadinae within the family of the Australian tree frogs.
Systematics
In current systematic reviews, 93 species are assigned to the genus Litoria .
