\u3ci\u3eBufo marinus\u3c/i\u3e (Linnaeus, 1758)

Marine toads are well adapted for living in urban areas and are quite common in suburban areas over their introduced range in Florida. They can frequently be seen hopping along sidewalks or resting near suburban canals (Wright and Wright, 1949; Krakauer, 1968; Ashton and Ashton, 1988). They are active mostly at night. During the day they hide under fallen trees, leaves, stones, debris, or any other objects in humid areas, or burrow into loose soil (Wright and Wright, 1949; Behler, 1979) Temperature Tolerance: Marine toads are sensitive to cold temperatures. Intolerance of cold temperatures was apparently the reason at least three attempts to introduce this species in Florida failed (Krakauer, 1970)
