There are a few other differences, such as the tree frog has their eyes sideways, while the glass frogs eyes are aimed forward, and the skin of the tree frog will not be transparent in any way.

The glass frogs will also deposit their eggs on trees or shrubbery that hangs over the water of creeks, streams or smalle rrivers, or on stones near them.
This is not the norm for frogs, however is specific to this species.

Eggs are in this way not normally bothered by the predators that take them in the water, however they are sometimes at risk for parasites who lay their eggs in the frogs egg, so some types of frogs will offer some level of parental care of the eggs.
