The pale frog, pallid rocket frog, pale rocket frog or peach-sided rocket frog[3] (Litoria pallida) is a frog from Australia.[2] It lives in Western Australia, Queensland and the Northern Territory.[4][1]

The adult frog can grow to 4.0 cm long from nose to rear end. It is light gray in colour with some stripes. It has yellow colour on its legs. Its front feet have a little webbing and its hind feet have more webbing.[2]

It lives in forests and grasslands[2] and in caves and rocky places.[1]

It lays eggs 50–350 eggs at a time in temporary bodies of water. The tadpoles take 8 to 10 weeks to become frogs[4] but sometimes they become frogs in as little as 5 weeks.[2]
