Globally, citizen scientists are becoming more involved in the collection of biodiversity data. Green tree frog (Rhacophorus reinwardtii) specimen inventories, which were expensive and time-consuming, were typically used to gather information on the species' occurrence. Without diminishing the significance of the specimen, citizen science can be used to collect information on the existence of green tree frogs in different parts of East Java by using images of green tree frogs. As part of the Our Amphibian Reptile Observation Movement's efforts, this endeavor was carried out (GO-ARK). Increased data collection was achieved through active citizen science engagement. 16 people who participated in this project provided more than 19 pictures of green tree frogs, which were processed to create records of the species' presence. Future opportunities were increased by this endeavor. © 2025 American Institute of Physics Inc.. All rights reserved.
