Ansonia glandulosa is a species of toads in the family Bufonidae. It is endemic to Sumatra, Indonesia, where it is only known from its type locality, Napal Licin in the Musi Rawas Regency. The holotype, the only known representative of this species, was found close to a small stream in lowland tropical rainforest; the locality is influenced by regular flooding during the rainy season.
Rhinella arborescandens is a species of toad in the family Bufonidae. It is endemic to Peru and only known from its type locality near Mendoza, northern Cordillera Central, in the Amazonas Region.

Gephyromantis boulengeri, sometimes known as Boulenger's Madagascar frog, is a species of frog in the family Mantellidae. It is endemic to Madagascar and found in the northeastern and eastern Madagascar as well as in Île Sainte-Marie. Its natural habitats are rainforests but it can also be found in degraded forests and in invasive eucalyptus forests within the rainforest belt at elevations up to 1,200 m (3,900 ft) above sea level. It is a common frog, although it is suspected to be in decline because of habitat loss and deterioration. However, it occurs in several protected areas.
Gephyromantis pseudoasper, also known as the Massif Madagascar frog, is a species of frog in the family Mantellidae. It is endemic to northern Madagascar. It occurs in both pristine and degraded rainforests and in secondary vegetation at elevations up to 900 m (3,000 ft) above sea level. It can be found both on the ground and in trees.

It is one of the five northeast Australian Cophixalus species that are specialized in boulder field habitats.
Smith's wrinkled frog, commonly known as Tasan eastern frog, Tasan frog, or Tha san frog,) is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is found in western and southern Thailand; its range likely extends to Myanmar but it has not yet been recorded there. Its natural habitats are primary rainforests near streams. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Limnonectes plicatellus is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is found on the Malay Peninsula in Malaysia, Singapore, and southern Peninsular Thailand. Its natural habitats are small streams; it is associated with swampy puddles in primary and degraded rainforest. It is not considered threatened by the IUCN.
Meristogenys orphnocnemis is a species of frog in the family Ranidae, sometimes known as Sabah Borneo frog or dusky-footed torrent frog. It is endemic to Borneo and found in the mountains of Sabah (Malaysia), Brunei, and East Kalimantan (Indonesia). Its natural habitats are hilly lowland rainforest, also occurring in slightly disturbed forests. Tadpoles live in clear, rocky forest streams where they cling to rocks in strong currents. Siltation of streams caused by deforestation is a threat to this species.
Pristimantis aaptus is a species of frog in the family Strabomantidae. It is endemic to the Amazon basin in Peru and Colombia. This species is rated "Least Concern" by the IUCN: although it is an uncommon species, there are large areas of suitable habitat, and threats to it are at local scales only.
Sumaterana crassiovis is a species of true frog. It is endemic to Sumatra, Indonesia. It is also known as the Bander Baru frog, Korinchi frog, and Kerinci cascade frog.
Nyctimantis arapapa, also known as Bahia's broad-snout casque-headed tree frog, is a species of frog endemic to the Atlantic Rainforest of southern Bahia, Brazil. The frogs of the genus Nyctimantis are distinguished by a bony plate on top of their heads, referred to as "casque-headed". Casque-headed frogs are characterized by their phragmotic behavior. N. arapapa is further characterized by the long bill-shaped "snout" they possess, similar to that of Triprion petasatus, a head longer than it is wide, and their small size. This species, and all species of Nyctimantis, use their unique head shape to seal off the leaves of bromeliads, the plant they inhabit solely. This has two known purposes: warding off predators from the frog as well as their young, and trapping moisture.
Nyctimantis pomba is a frog in the family Hylidae, endemic to Brazil. Scientists have seen it in exactly one place, 233 meters above sea level in the rainforest in Minas Gerais.
