The Jamaican laughing frog (Osteopilus ocellatus) is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. It is endemic to Jamaica.[2] Other common names include Savanna-la-Mar treefrog.[3] This is a common species in most parts of Jamaica, where it occurs in a variety of habitat types, including developed but rural areas. It is associated with bromeliads. It lays its eggs inside these plants, and the tadpoles develop there.[2] Taxonomic studies determined that the binomial names Rana ocellata and Osteopilus brunneus belong to this species as synonyms, and distinguished this taxon from the mainly South American species Leptodactylus latrans.[1]References1. ^1 Lavilla, E.
