you're describing selection and variance. this isn't a new frog species, it's a new colour.

You really should take a hard look at whatever “lesson” you got in college and actually read what evolution means from some current evolutionary biology papers. It doesn’t only refer to speciation. Obviously speciation can happen as a gradual process without a clear start and end date as two populations slowly diverge. That process is called…evolution.
