Nanorana annandalii (common names: Annandale's paa frog, Annandale's frog, Boulenger's hill frog) is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is found in northeastern India (Arunachal Pradesh and West Bengal) and eastern Nepal. Nanorana gammii (Anderson, 1871) was until quite recently (2006) considered a synonym of Nanorana annandalii but is now treated as a separate species; this change confounds older records of Nanorana annandalii. [2] This species lives in rocky streams and brooks in montane forests. It can also be found near pools in forest clearings. It is threatened by habitat loss (deforestation). [1]
The yellow-headed temple turtle is a large species of turtle in the family Geoemydidae. The species is native to Southeast Asia.
Nanorana unculuanus is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is endemic to central and southern Yunnan, China, although it is expected to have wider distribution than currently known, possibly extending into Vietnam. Its natural habitats are fast-flowing hill streams and riparian habitats in forests and grasslands, but also man-made habitats like roadside drainage ditches and ponds. It is a rare and secretive species that appears to be declining. It is currently threatened by collection for food and also by habitat loss.
Nanorana arnoldi is a large species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is found in southwestern China, northern Myanmar, eastern Nepal, and adjacent northeastern India. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forest, rivers, and freshwater springs. It is primarily threatened by collection for consumption, but also by habitat loss.
Nanorana blanfordii is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is found in northeastern India, southern Tibet (China), and eastern Nepal, and likely in the adjacent western Bhutan. The specific name blanfordii honours William Thomas Blandford, a British geologist and zoologist.
Nanorana feae is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is found in Yunnan, China, and the Kachin Hills in Myanmar. The specific name feae honors Leonardo Fea, an Italian explorer, zoologist, and naturalist. This little-known species probably inhabits hill streams in forested areas.
Nanorana medogensis is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is endemic to Tibet, China, and only known from near its type locality in Mêdog County in southeastern Tibet, near the Indian border. It lives in forested streams, and is sometimes also found at the edges of pools and ponds.
Nanorana minica is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is found in northern India and in western and eastern Nepal. It is a fairly common species found in subtropical montane forest and streams. It is threatened by habitat loss through the localized clearance of forest.
Nanorana polunini is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is found in Nyalam County in southern Tibet (China), Nepal, and possibly Kashmir (India). It is a common species in Nepal but rare in China. It lives in stream habitats in montane forest.
Nanorana rostandi is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is endemic to western Nepal. It is a rare species found near high-altitude streams, springs, and other running waters within forests and grasslands. It is threatened by habitat loss due to subsistence wood collecting.
Nanorana taihangnica, or the Taihangshan swelled-vented frog, is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is endemic to central China. Its type locality is on the Taihang Mountains, within the Jiyuan city in Henan province of central China. It is now also reported from Qin, Funiu and Zhongtiao Mountains, with its distribution also including Gansu and Shaanxi provinces. There is substantial differentiation among lineages from different mountains.
Nanorana vicina is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is found in the Himalayan front of northern India and Pakistan. Its natural habitats are high-altitude rivers, springs, and other running water in open forest and grassland habitats. There seem not to be any major threats to this species.
Nanorana yunnanensis, commonly known as Yunnan paa frog, Yunnan spiny frog, Bourret's paa frog or Bourret's frog, is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is found in southwestern China, Vietnam, Myanmar, northern Thailand, and likely in the intervening Laos. Its natural habitats are small and large streams in montane forests, scrub vegetation and grasslands, and it has also been found in ditches. It is threatened primarily by collection for human consumption, but also by habitat loss caused by agricultural development and infrastructure development.
Raorchestes annandalii is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is found in the eastern Himalayas in India, Nepal, and Bhutan. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forests and subtropical or tropical high-altitude shrubland.
Clinotarsus alticola is a species of frog in the family Ranidae. Common names for this species include: Assam Hills frog, Annandale's frog, pointed-headed frog, palebrown stream frog, hill frog, point-nosed frog, and high-altitude frog. It is found in Hills of Meghalaya and northeastern India to northern Bangladesh, possibly into Bhutan and Nepal.
