  16. They're various _Hyperolius_ species, kind of delicate-looking and green,
  17. with big red eyes.  I don't know a lot about them, except that they're
  18. cool-looking, and I gather they're not doing so well in the wild.

  20. The editorial column in _The Vivarium_ a few months back said that they used
  21. to be available cheaply and in large numbers, that no one did much work with
  22. them, and now they're "virtually unobtainable."  (Glades had a few of them
  23. for $85 each last month, though.)
