    This frog has a fitting scientific name: Mini mum. In fact, a full-grown adult can fit on the back of a thumbtack! Its size ranges from a mere 0.38 in (9.7 mm) - 0.44 in (11.3 mm). 2 other tiny frogs make up the genus Mini. Their names? Mini scule & Mini ature! [📸: PLOS One]

    Close up of a Mini mum frog resting atop a human's finger nail. The frog is sitting, facing the left. It has dark brown skin on its underside and light brown skin on its back side. Its eye appears black with a red ring around it.
