One Blanchard's cricket frog (Acris crepitans blanchardi) lacking the left eye and orbit was found by Smith and Powell in Missouri in 1973 (1983).
In fact, Blanchard's cricket frog was heard in only one permanent swamp and only in 2001.
What they found reveals a new possibility as to why the cricket frog, indigenous to the eastern half of the United States, has experienced a marked population decline in recent decades.
