Can you identify the parts of a frog?

In order to classify frogs and toads, we must refer to certain external features or characteristics. Many of these are the same for both frogs and toads.
Can you identify the following parts on the frog picture to the left?








I've made it a little easier and already identified them for you.
1. cranial crests
2. parotid gland
3. tarsus (shank)
4. dorsolateral folds
5. femoral area (thigh)
6. toes with digital discs
7. toes without digital discs
8. tympanum
