880687 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cruziohyla%20sylviae | Cruziohyla sylviae | Sylvia's tree frog (Cruziohyla sylviae) is a frog that lives in Panama, Costa Rica, Honduras, and Nicaragua. Scientists have seen it no more than 750 meters above sea level.
Appearance
The adult male frog is 4.3 to 6.7 cm long from nose to rear end and the adult female frog is 7.4 to 8.8 cm long.
This frog has a mix of dark green and light green on its back, with pale blue spots. It has yellow-orange sides with thick black stripes. It has a small yellow spot behind each eye. The spot is covered up when the frog is still. Unlike Cruziohyla calcarifer, it does not have dark brown marks on its underside.
Eggs and tadpoles
The female frog lays her eggs on leaves or branches hanging over small bodies of water, for example pools of water in hollow trees. When the eggs hatch, the tadpoles fall into the water.
Threats
This frog is not endangered, and people have seen more of them than there were before. However, they are still in some danger because human beings change the forests where they live into farms and other things and cut down trees for the wood. This is called habitat loss.

German nationailsm started around 1770. At the start, there were many different small kingdoms and duchies, the German state only started to exist in the mid-19th century. German nationalism started with the Napoleonic wars, when France invaded the different German states. In the 19th century, the main qestion was whether to make a Germany that included the modern-day state of Austria, (seen as lesser German) or to make one that included it.
In the end Bismarck opted for a lesser German solution (which did not include Austria). When the Nazis came to power in 1933, they wanted to create a Greater Germany (including Austria). During this time, the people who were not seen as German wer seen as Untermenschen (subumans), and many were killed.

880882 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarcohyla | Sarcohyla | Sarcohyla is a genus of frogs in the family Hylidae. These frogs live in Mexico and the hills and mountains between Durango in the north and Guerrero in the south. These frogs live in habitats that humans have not changed too much, near streams in pine-oak forests between above sea level. The name comes from the Greek sarkodes meaning "fleshy" and from Hylas. It is for the thick, glandular skin of most of the frogs in the genus.
Description
Sarcohyla are medium sized or large frogs. They have thick skin with glands. They have large thumbs and no projecting spine. The alary process of the premaxilla does not split into two pieces like it does in some other frogs.
Taxonomy
Scientists first invented Sarcohyla in 2016 using molecular data. The species in Sarcohyla had been in the Hyla bistincta, Hyla arborescandens and Plectrohyla bistincta groups. Sarcohyla'''s sister group is Plectrohyla. Not all species in Sarcohyla'' were included in the molecular analysis, so not all scientists are sure the genus is monophyletic.
Species
The genus has 26 species in it:

The Criminal Tribes Act and its provisions used the term Tribes, which included castes within their scope. This terminology was preferred for various reasons, including Muslim sensitivities that considered castes by definition Hindu, and preferred Tribes as a more generic term that included Muslims. The origins behind the creation of the act concerned Revolt of 1857 where many tribal chiefs as Dhan Singh Gurjar were labelled traitors and considered rebellious.
The Criminal Tribes Act of 1871, expanded in scope through the 1920s, targeted numerous castes in colonial India. According to Simon Cole, a professor of Criminology, Law & Society, the law declared everyone belonging to certain castes to be born with criminal tendencies. They criminalized entire communities by categorizing them as habitual criminals. Because of this label, restriction on their movements was also imposed.
Adult male members of such groups were forced to report weekly to the local police.
