The Armored Mist frog, a species not seen anywhere for 17 years has been rediscovered in a remote location in the far north of Australia.

James Cook University’s Professor Ross Alford said it was feared that the Armored Mist Frog (Litoria lorica) had been lost in the devastating outbreaks of amphibian chytrid fungus that started in the Wet Tropics 20 years ago, according to Wildlife Extra.
