One species of tree frog has the ability to emit fluorescent light, which had not been documented among any other species of amphibians.
Their discovery boasted by scientists of the Brazilian University of são Paulo, which found a frog in Argentina.
The researchers found that if this tree frog bring a UV light, it exhibits the skills of its luminescently and starts flashing bright blue-green color.
Scientists were very surprised, because earlier there were no amphibians with similar characteristics, in particular, the fluorescence may only become apparent a few fish and sea turtles.
Moreover, chemical compounds, allowing this creature to glow, have a very strange structure.
“Its molecules contain the ring structure and chain of hydrocarbons, which are unique among known fluorescent molecules in animals,” the scientists explain.
