Noted and updated. Thanks. Funny too because I was looking at some of my old herp books the other day (1960s/70s) and I have one on Amphibians. In the book the common names for a great many animals were totally different than today.

Taxonomists recently chopped up the Pacific Treefrog for some reason... The ones in Mendocino County are now considered to be P. sierra, the Sierran Treefrog, haha.
