Frog eggs ID

Postby Ilian Velikov » Wed Jan 19, 2011 7:33 pm

I have photos of some frog eggs which are either from Pelophylax ridibundus or Rana dalmatina, but I can't figure it out! Can anybody help? Thank you!

Judging by the state of the vegetation, I'd guess this is an early season photo series, so dalmatina. That is, if you are sure temporaria is no option, because the clutches are quite sizeable, floating in part and not attached to branches in more open water. BUT I am no expert.

Yes, these are early season photos (March), so I thought dalmatina as well but I'm not sure! I've never seen temporaria in that region!
