Biological invasions are widely recognized as a significant component of human-caused global environmental change, often resulting in the loss of biological diversity and ecosystem function (Hulme, 2003). The greenhouse frog Eleutherodactylus planirostris has direct development (no aquatic stage) and deposits its eggs in moist soil, which facilitate human-mediated colonization (Christy et al., 2007) through transportation in potted plants (e.g. Kraus et al., 1999;Kraus and Campbell, 2002).The greenhouse frog is native to the Caribbean islands of Cuba, Bahamas and Cayman Islands (Díaz and Cádiz, 2008;Olson et al., 2012a), but it has a wide non-native distribution in the United States,
