It has the body characteristics more of a toad than a frog. But as Shakespeare said, A Rose by Any Other Name is just as sweet. And your photos are marvelous.

So called because the skin can become very bright red.
If captured it secrets a toxin in the mouth of the predator, that numbs its mouth and eyes, which promptly causes it to release it.
