Raorchestes annandalii (known also as Annandale's bush frog, coppersmith frog, Himalaya bubble-nest frog, or Himalaya foam nest frog) is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is found in the eastern Himalayas in India, Nepal, and Bhutan. [2] Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forests and subtropical or tropical high-altitude shrubland. [1] It has been observed as high as 2700 meters above sea level. [3] It relies on saltation to move around.
The white-lined leaf frog is a species of frog in the subfamily Phyllomedusinae. It is found in northern South America. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest, subtropical or tropical swampland, rivers, and freshwater marshes. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Nanorana annandalii is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is found in northeastern India 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. 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).
Hylarana garoensis, commonly known as Boulenger's Garo hill frog, Daniel's frog, Swift cascade frog, Garo's hill frog or the Mawphlang frog, is a accepted species of frog in the family Ranidae. H. garoensis' natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, subtropical or tropical moist shrubland, subtropical or tropical high-altitude grassland, and rivers; it is found in India and possibly Bangladesh. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Raorchestes andersoni is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is found in northeast India, northern Myanmar, and Tibet and Yunnan, China. The common names Anderson's bubble-nest frog, Anderson's bush frog and tuberculed small treefrog have been coined for it.
Raorchestes bobingeri is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to the Western Ghats, India.
Philautus bombayensis, the Bombay bubble-nest frog, Maharashtra bush frog, Castle Rock bush frog, or Konkan bush frog is a species of frogs in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to the Western Ghats, India.
Raorchestes chalazodes is a species of critically endangered frog in the family Rhacophoridae. Raorchestes chalazodes is a nocturnal and arboreal species found in the understorey of tropical moist evergreen forest and is endemic to the Western Ghats of India. The specific name chalazodes is composed of the Greek word χάλαζα (chalaza) meaning "lump" and -odes for the derived adjective, reflecting white granulation of the body.
Raorchestes charius is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to the Western Ghats, India. It is an arboreal species living in tropical moist evergreen forests in the Karnataka state. It is threatened by habitat loss caused by the conversion of native forests into cultivated areas.
Raorchestes flaviventris is a species of arboreal, nocturnal, frog of the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to the Western Ghats, South India. Its common name is yellow-bellied bush frog.
Raorchestes graminirupes is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to the Western Ghats, India. Scientists know it exclusively from the type locality: Palmudi in the Western Ghat mountains, about 1030 meters above sea level. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical high-altitude shrubland and subtropical or tropical high-altitude grassland. It is threatened by habitat loss. Scientists have observed this frog sitting on plants near the ground. The female frog lays eggs in cracks in rocks or near grass.
Raorchestes parvulus is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is found from eastern Bangladesh east through Myanmar and Thailand to Cambodia, northern Vietnam, Laos, and Peninsular Malaysia. Its distribution might well extend into northeastern India and southern China. This species was first described by George Albert Boulenger based on seven specimens collected by Leonardo Fea from Karen Hills, Burma.
Raorchestes ponmudi is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to the Western Ghats, India.
Raorchestes shillongensis is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to Greater Shillong in North East India. It is known from the Khasi Hills in the region of Shillong, Meghalaya in north-eastern India. It has been categorized as Critically Endangered because its extent of occurrence is less than 100 km2, its distribution is severely fragmented, there is continuing decline in the extent and quality of its habitat, and in the number of mature individuals in and around Shillong, in Meghalaya, northeastern India.
Raorchestes signatus is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to the Western Ghats, India.
Raorchestes travancoricus, variously known as the Travancore bushfrog, Travancore bubble-nest frog, or Travancore tree frog, is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. The species is endemic to the southern Western Ghats, India. Its specific name, travancoricus, as well as its three common names, refer to its type locality, Bodinayakkanur in the former Travancore state.
Kurixalus verrucosus is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae found in Myanmar, Thailand, China, and Vietnam. In the past, it has been considered synonym of Rhacophorus appendiculatus, which, together with other confusion regarding the identity of this species, makes interpreting older literature difficult. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, subtropical or tropical moist montane forests, rivers, and intermittent rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Hylarana glandulosa, commonly known as the rough-sided frog or the glandular frog, is a species of true frog in the genus Hylarana. It is native to Brunei Darussalam, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest, subtropical or tropical swampland, rivers, freshwater marshes, caves, and plantations. It is not considered threatened by the IUCN.
Raorchestes is a genus of frogs in the subfamily Rhacophorinae that are found in mountainous regions of South Asia, Southeast Asia, and southern China. A recent study places Raorchestes as a sister taxon of Pseudophilautus. Before the description of the genus in 2010, species now in Raorchestes had been assigned to genera Ixalus, Philautus, and Pseudophilautus.
