  • Conservation Advice Litoria Dayi Lace-Eyed Tree Frog
    THREATENED SPECIES SCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE Established under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 The Minister’s delegate approved this Conservation Advice on 13/07/2017. Conservation Advice Litoria dayi lace-eyed tree frog Conservation Status Litoria dayi (lace-eyed tree frog) is listed as Endangered under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (Cwlth) (EPBC Act) effective 16 July 2000. The species is eligible for listing under the EPBC Act as on 16 July 2000 it was listed as Endangered under Schedule 1 of the preceding Act, the Endangered Species Protection Act 1992 (Cwlth). Species can also be listed as threatened under state and territory legislation. For information on the current listing status of this species under relevant state or territory legislation, see http://www.environment.gov.au/cgi-bin/sprat/public/sprat.pl . The main factor that was the cause of the species being eligible for listing in the Endangered category was a dramatic range contraction with an observed reduction in population size of greater than 50 percent. Populations are no longer present at altitudes greater than 300 m, likely due to chytridiomycosis (Hero et al. 2004). This species’ status under the EBPC Act is currently being reviewed as part of a species expert assessment plan for frogs. Description The lace-eyed tree frog was recently transferred to the genus Litoria from the genus Nyctimystes after Kraus (2013) showed that it did not meet the morphological characteristics for assignment to that genus (Cogger 2014). This species is a small to medium sized frog growing to 50 mm in snout-to-vent length.
