Boo! No need to be afraid of this ghost, because it’s just the ghost glass frog (Sachatamia ilex). Growing up to 1.5 in (3.8 cm) long, this bright green—yet elusive—critter lives in parts of Central and South America, including Panama and Colombia. It’s found in tropical forests, where it blends in with the lush greenery. And it really blends in: This arboreal amphibian is able to “vanish” like a ghost, altering the hue of its green skin to more closely match vegetation of varying shades!

Animal of the Day!
Diane’s Bare-hearted Glass Frog (Hyalinobatrachium dianae)
(Photo from National Geographic)
Conservation Status- Least Concern
Habitat- Costa Rica
Size (Weight/Length)- 3 cm
Diet- Small insects; Spiders
Cool Facts- The Diane’s bare-hearted glass frog is one of the more recent species of glass frog, only being formally described in 2015. The bare-hearted frog is eerily similar to Kermit the frog due to their large pupils and green skin. These glass frogs have transparent belly skin. This transparent skin allows you to see its organs, including their tiny heartbeat. Luckily, the region of Costa Rica these frogs inhabit is relatively undisturbed by humans and is found almost completely in protected rainforest. Like with many species of frog, the Diane’s bare-hearted glass frog has a unique mating croak that sounds more similar to a whistle than a ribbit.
Rating- 13/10 (Why are there so many, songs about rainbows and what’s on the other side?)

“Delicate Balance”
Acrylic and acrylic gouache on BFK Rives mounted on cradled wood panel
6″ x 12″ x 1.5″
“Existential” opens tonight, 6–9pm, and spans both Antler Gallery and Talon Gallery in Portland. The show, curated by Thinkspace and Antler/Talon, will feature over 100 works by over 70 amazing artists; 10% of all sales will be donated to Born Free USA to help raise awareness and funds for our world’s endangered species.
My piece is inspired by glass frogs. More than half of glass frog species assessed by the International Union of Conservation of Nature (IUCN) are threatened with extinction and all are vulnerable to habitat loss, pollution, climate change, invasive species, chytrid fungus, and the international pet trade.
The Mashpi glass frog, the species I referenced for my piece, was discovered in Ecuador just last year and was recommended by researchers to be listed as endangered according to IUCN guidelines.
The painting also features a Mashpi orchid and a monkey grasshopper. 🌸🦗
If you’re in the area I hope you’ll check out the show. It’s sure to be a good one!
