Its color can range from pure green to greenish-brown or light brown, and its name comes from the bright white stripe that runs over its lower jaw and the side of its head. The Australian tree frog, New Guinea tree frog, and enormous tree frog are some of their other common names.

These creatures are primarily found in the rainforests, woodlands, and coastal parts of the Cape York Peninsula, as well as in Papua New Guinea’s and Queensland, Australia’s rainforest regions. They consume insects and other arthropods since they are carnivores. Rarely have they been seen consuming small vertebrates.
