Leaf insects belong to the order Phasmida (or Phasmatodea), but belong to different superfamilies.

More than 3000 species have been described. They are a group specialized in camouflage (crypsis) with extraordinary colors, shapes and behaviors that confuse them with the vegetation on which they inhabit and on which they feed.

The leaf shape of these animals is reinforced by the fact that their wings are adorned with patterns that are very reminiscent of the innervations of plant leaves and because their legs are endowed with lamellar expansions that blend in with those of the leaves themselves.

The red-eyed tree frog or red-eyed frog (Agalychnis callidryas) is a species of frog from the Hylidae family.

Its name comes from the Greek (aga) meaning "full of", (lychnos) "bright" and the species name refers to (kallos) "beauty" and (dryas) "tree nymph".

Most notable are his large red eyes with a vertical pupil. As adults they come to have bright colors over their entire body. Green predominates, but they usually present other colors such as blue or yellow, the front legs are bright blue, while the back legs are red or orange. The coloring of this frog is very striking.

The male is smaller than the female: 56 mm and the female 71 mm. They are nocturnal and arboreal. The red-eyed green frog feeds primarily on insects. Its predators include birds, bats, and snakes. Your skin contains toxins, but they are not very powerful.
