Help ID this Frog

[Kimbully]

My friend found this frog in some fruit (vic) bananas I think and she is having trouble identifying it. I know the picture quality isn't very clear, but any guesses?
Thanks
Kim

Litoria ewingii aka, Brown Tree Frog, a Vic local, though spills over into NSW and SA

I may not know much about frogs but i think it might be a Brown Tree Frog from my memory.

Although its brown, i don't think its a BTF, It lacks the soft stripes at the sides.
If it came in banana box, probibly not a BTF as they aren't much in the top end of Aus.
My best guess is one of these two little fellas,

Litoria meiriana
Rockhole Frog

Litoria revelata
Whirring Tree Frog

I Highly reccomend you call the Victorian frog group, banana box rescue (03) 9742 3764 (or 9742 FROG) . They will come and pick it up free of charge and quarinteen it. They can also identify exactly what species it is.
It could have disesase on it that may travel to other frogs,thats how the chytrid fungus got around, and frogs world wide are being wiped out cause of it.
It may require specialist care, ya don't want the poor thing dying cause it needed a specific heating or uv light requirement.

Love the cute little fella,
Sarah
