Rufescent Burrowing Frog or Reddish Burrowing Frog (Fejervarya rufescens)
This frog is endemic to India, widespread across the Western Ghats and the Western Coast. A tiny frog, it merges into the pebbles around it with utmost ease. In breeding season, it develops red patches on its upper body, hence the common name.
