Abstract

Shows that abnormal frogs representing ten species can be found in a range of habitats in the Mount Lofty Ranges, Flinders Ranges and the South East of South Australia. There appeared to be an increase in the incidence of abnormality in the polluted aquaria, but the rate of abnormality was lower than that recorded in the wild.
