I'm the one that sent you over here.
Now that I see the new photo I'm guessing it's a Cuban Tree Frog. The pattern, eyes and toe pads are VERY close. Below is a photo of my three males. See how the shape of the markings really look alike?
Do you know where the accidental shippment came from? If it is a Cuban, don't release it. They are VERY hearty frogs and can easily take over an area. They aare VERY easy to care for though. A 20 gallon tank turned on it's side to make it tall, some branches and lots of leaves for hidding. Temps around 80-85 durring the day and as low as 68-70 at night. He will eat crickets mostly in captivity. You can also offer small moths, flies, wax worms (not too often though because they are high in fat, just as a treat)
Since it was a wild capture he may tend to be jumpy and they do go for the exit as soon as you open the tank. (I don't know how many times I'd ended up with one on my face already LOL)
If it's a male he'll grow to abour 2 1/2 - 3 inches, females can reach 5 inches. The males call when kinda sounds like someone rubbing a finger against a balloon. It isn't very loud but you'll know it when you hear it.
If you have any questions feel free to email me at EllasMommie@yahoo.com
