The gray treefrog (Dryophytes versicolor) is a species of small arboreal holarctic tree frog native to much of the eastern United States and southeastern Canada. [2]

The gray treefrog, sometimes called the Northern gray treefrog, is closely related to the Cope’s gray treefrog (Hyla chrysoscelis), with overlapping range and identical physical appearance. These two species are distinguishable based on variation in their calls.

Jun 22, 2021 · Gray tree frogs are the most common and widespread arboreal frog in North America. Let’s recognize and learn about this often-overlooked species!

Cope's Gray Treefrogs (Dryophytes chrysoscelis) and Gray Treefrogs (Dryophytes versicolor) are members of a cryptic, diploid-tetraploid species complex. This has resulted in considerable taxonomic confusion, especially in early reports.

Gray tree frogs are large, arboreal species common throughout much of the eastern U.S. and southeastern Canada. They have highly adapted toe tips for climbing and change color based on their temperature and activity.

The gray treefrog (Dryophytes versicolor) is a species of small arboreal holarctic tree frog native to much of the eastern United States and southeastern Canada.

One of the better ways to distinguish between the two species is by ear. The call of the gray treefrog (H. versicolor) is a musical birdlike trill. The call of Cope’s gray treefrog (H. chrysoscelis) is a high-pitched buzzing trill. Amateurs can learn to distinguish between them, with practice.

Cope's gray treefrog [2] (Dryophytes chrysoscelis) is a species of treefrog found in the United States and Canada. It is almost indistinguishable from the gray treefrog ( Dryophytes versicolor ), and shares much of its geographic range.

Gray tree frogs are found from Central Texas north to Western Minnesota, then east all the way to the coast. However, they do not occur in southern parts of Florida or in Northern Maine. They’re one of the most common tree frogs in the eastern half of the United States.
