Wikipedia Abstract

Ramanella variegata sometimes called the termite nest frog, variable ramanella or white-bellied pug snout frog is a species of narrow-mouthed frog found in India and Sri Lanka. They are seen mostly in the monsoon season when they may enter homes. They are small in size and the variegated markings and the genus characteristic of having pads on the fingertips but not on their toes make them easy to identify.
