	Israel painted frog - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Israel painted frog or Palestinian painted frog (Discoglossus nigriventer) is an extinct amphibian, whose range was limited to the HaHula Lake marshes in Israel and adjacent Syria.
		It differs from the common painted frog (Discoglossus pictus) by its greater interocular distance, longer forelimbs, and a less projecting snout.
		It was originally referred to as "Palestinian" painted frog, but nowadays is known as "Israel" painted frog, as the state of Israel did not exist at the time of the original description.
