These frogs, especially the dwarf coqui, have individual, finger-like feet, with round, disc-like toes.[4] E. coqui is often referred to as the “coqui,” which originates from its distinctive call.[5] The “coqui” frogs are known for the unusual sounds they make. “The call of the dwarf coqui has been compared to the sound of a fingernail being dragged across the teeth of a comb or the winding of a watch.”[4] See also{{Portal|Puerto Rico|Biology|Amphibians and Reptiles}}
