Nymphargus grandisonae
- ... that the male giant glass frog has a hooked spur on his upper arm which is used when fighting rivals?
- Reviewed: Monita Rajpal
5x expanded by Cwmhiraeth (talk). Self-nominated at 06:37, 12 June 2020 (UTC).
- New enough (5x expanded 6/6, nominated 6/12), long enough (3,200 chars), neutral, cites sources, appears free of plagiarism. Hook is cited and interesting. It would perhaps be more interesting if you also mentioned that they fought while hanging from sticks, because the imagery of frogs hanging in air having a knife-slap fight is evocative. QPQ is present, no image. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 20:11, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
- Hi, I came by to promote this, but I don't see the common name giant glass frog in the source. I only see red-spotted glassfrog. Yoninah (talk) 22:10, 13 June 2020 (UTC)
- @Yoninah: I have added a reference. I rather liked the fact that this one-inch-long frog was called "giant". Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:18, 14 June 2020 (UTC)
