The Common Dink Frog (Diasporus diastema) occurs in Central America, from Honduras through Nicaragua and Costa Rica to Panama. It is named after the loud metallic "dink" sound that the male frog makes during the night. The tiny males measure only 2 cm (0.79 in) at most. Females are a bit larger and reach up to 2.4 cm (0.94 in) when fully grown. Despite its small size, its call is remarkably loud.
