The Pine Barrens Tree Frog, Hyla andersonii, is a mysterious and elusive tree frog. Limited to very few niches, this frog can be found in either of the Carolinas, parts of Florida, and parts of New Jersey, but nowhere else. Very little is known about their post-behavior and spatial ecology. State-threatened in New Jersey, understanding patterns of movement and habitation of this frog will be imperative for its long-term conservation. We conducted a pilot mark-and-recapture study of this frog on Warren Grove Gunnery Range in the New Jersey Pine Barrens. We used Visible Implant Elastomers (VIEs) and harmonic tags to mark and track individuals.
