Fowler's or American?

z10silver Jul 25, 2007 08:27 PM

Found this on a hike in Ithaca, NY. Can someone tell me if this is a Fowler's or American toad? I know there is a way to tell by counting warts inside the dark blotches but I'm not sure...

Thanks,
Zach

A way to distinquish the two is to count the warts within the black spots.
In the American Toad, there are 1 - 2 per spot, in Fowler's, there are 3 or more.
