Pacific Treefrogs are found in talus slopes, agricultural areas, deserts, meadows and forested areas. Typically they are near riparian areas or some other water source such as marshes, ponds or lakes. The adults will utilize ephemeral water sources to lay their eggs. Occurs from sea level to over 9000 feet, usually in low vegetation near water, but also in grasslands, woodlands, forests, and farmlands. Eats beetles, flies, spiders, ants, and isopods. Tadpoles probably eat algae, organic debris, and plant tissue.
