There is a morph of auartus with a large range in Panama that extends along both sides of the Panama Canal. This morph is appropriately called the Canal Zone morph. Frogs of this morph are known as Ancon Hill in the hobby because some of them originate specifically from the Ancon Hill in Panama City. This is a unique park area in the middle of an Urban environment where auartus and other plants and animals continue to thrive. This morph may also sometimes be called the six-point morph. This is a small morph of dark brown auratus with only a few small green spots or lines.
