Any of many species of frogs in diverse genera.
A common name applied to various frog species known for calling loudly before or during rain, most notably the spring peeper in North America and various burrowing frogs in southern Africa. The name reflects folk observation that frogs tend to vocalize more actively in wet or pre-storm conditions. In the US, 'rain frog' most often refers to the spring peeper (Pseudacris crucifer); in South Africa and Australia, it's applied to burrowing frog genera. Usage is informal and regional.
