The Columbia Spotted Frog (Rana luteiventris) is a North American species of frog.
This frog is green to brown in color with spots on their dorsal surface. The belly and upper lip is white in color. They can be distinguished from other frogs in the Rana genus by their shorter back legs, narrow snout and upturned eyes. Since the spend most of their time in the water, they also have more webbing in their hind feet than other similar species.
