So far I have been unable to find any credible evidence of what that ring is. No interviews with Jim Henson, for example. One reason given is that ring hides a seam between the puppet's head and body: while this gives a why it is there, especially for a puppet built in the s without modern technology, it does not explain what it is. Another is that Kermit started out as a lizard or nameless animal and later turned into a frog: however, would his appearance not be updated to match his species?

Again, this theory does not explain what it is. This thread on Reddit touches on the various theories and is a good, concise overview: however, it offers no credible evidence to back up any of the claims of what that ring is.

Why does Kermit the Frog have a ring of pointy flaps around his neck? Note: if you follow the Wikipedia links for Kermit there are some articles that assert he was species-less at first with Henson quotes to back it up: however, upon becoming a frog I would expect his features to match that of a frog as close as one could expect a fictional anthropomorphized muppet to match.

His original species is largely irrelevant to his frog features. It's a Like a Prince's or Jester's collar. It has nothing to do with being a frog actually, aside that it somehow made him look more frog like.

Likely because it gives a nice separation between head and body. Otherwise he just looks like a lizard. Which he used to be. But to Kermit, it's just a piece of clothes.
