[2] The emerald-eyed tree frog varies in coloration, being either green, tan, or reddish-brown,[3] and has long, slender arms and legs.

The call of the Emerald-eyed tree frog is described as rattle-like, and consists of short low and medium pitch notes.

[4] Emerald-eyed treefrog breeding occurs mostly throughout the rainy season, with male frogs calling female frogs from the edges of flooded grasses or temporary ponds created by rain.

Females can lay over 1,000 eggs at once, which will float at the top of the water for 24 hours before sinking.

[3] Emerald-eyed tree frog tadpoles are light brown or grey with long, slightly yellow tails.
