Treefrogs (Family Hylidae)

Hylidae is a wide-ranging family of frogs commonly referred to as
"treefrogs and their allies". However, the hylids include a diversity

of frog species, many of which do not live in trees, but are terrestrial

or semi-aquatic. Hylidae are common throughout North and South

America, Europe, and Australia; they are restricted to the extreme

northwest region of Africa and to the mountainous regions of the

Middle East and central Asia.
