I dug out my tree frog today. He is brown with tiny tan spots and has a tan/bronze opalescent stripe down each side which meet at a point at his nose. His is tan underneath as well as his legs. He is between 1/2 and 3/3 inch in lenth. His eyes are dark brown with copper, and not excessively large. He burrows in the dirt to hide, and made a cave for himself. Again, the store called him a Rainbow Tree Frog. The 2 suggestions didn't look like him (thanks for the attempt) so maybe this will give you more to go on...

Does it seem strange to anybody else that this tree frog is burrowing?

Nope, the frog should be hidden in the trees, so you must provide more coverage.

Thanks for trying to help...I have 3 live plants and 1 plastic plant and 3 branched sticks in the cage. There are plenty of places for a tiny frog to hide. In fact, I have not seen him for several days now, and am worried that my brown anole may have eaten him....There is a water bowl, and I mist often. The frog burrowed in the dirt the minute I put him in the cage. So far none of the suggestions matches. The supplier was out of town, but someone there suggested it was a Reed Frog. So far none of the pictures match, but a picture of a Hyperolius hieroglyphicus was close...just the colors were wrong. Any way, nothing matters if he is gone...if only anoles could talk!

Im guessing possibly a Rhacophorus/Polyepedates Leucomastyx

M.N

Sometimes some types of tree frogs will burrow when the humidity/temperature is not high enough.
