The Southern Cricket Frog, Acris gryllus, is a very small frog, native to the Southeastern United States. They are very similar in appearance to the Northern Cricket Frog, and frequent the same types of habitats.
They reach a size of about 1 inch as adults, with some larger specimens going over 1 inch. The Southern Cricket Frogs seem to be better jumpers than their Northern cousins.
