The males of Fleischmann's glass frog (Hyalinobatrachium fleischmanni) guard their eggs as they develop into tadpoles capable of swimming away on their own. As their name suggests, they tend to be transparant or transluscent, which allows light to pass through the leaves they rest on during the day without casting a shaddow, thus hiding them from predators.

An eyelash viper (Bothriechis schlegelii) is awakend during the day by our research team to show it off in its cloud forest habitat--a very rare forest where we found many new species, yet is barely protected and nearly gone.
