Gulf Coast Toad vs. Woodhouse's Toad
The two common toads of eastern and central Texas; both have a pale line down the back, so look at the head and the sides. A: High crests make a deep, sunken valley between the eyes in the Gulf Coast Toad; low crests along the inner edge of the eye, no sunken valley in the Woodhouse's Toad. B: A broad dark band along the side, edged above by a pale stripe in the Gulf Coast Toad; no dark band along the side: dark blotches scattered over the back in the Woodhouse's Toad. Calls differ: the Gulf Coast Toad gives a short, dry trill like a ratchet; Woodhouse's a nasal 'waaah' like a bleating sheep.
