Rhacophorus translineatus is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is found in eastern Tibet (China) and in Arunachal Pradesh, northeastern India. [2]

Rhacophorus translineatus occurs in forests at elevations of 1,200–1,500 m (3,900–4,900 ft) above sea level. Specimens have been found on banana leaves. Breeding takes place in lentic habitats such as lakes. Threats to this species are unknown. [1]

Rhacophorus calcaneus is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to Vietnam. It has been extensively confused with Rhacophorus robertingeri, making it difficult to know its true range. Its natural habitats are evergreen forests at elevations of 1,300–2,000 m (4,300–6,600 ft) above sea level. It is threatened by collection for the international pet trade and by habitat loss and degradation caused by rapidly expanding agriculture, including cash crops such as rubber, coffee and tea.

<i>Rhacophorus reinwardtii</i> Species of frog

Rhacophorus reinwardtii is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is variously known under the common names of black-webbed treefrog, green flying frog, Reinwardt's flying frog, or Reinwardt's treefrog. Before 2006, Rhacophorus reinwardtii and Rhacophorus kio were considered to be the same species. It is not considered threatened by the IUCN.

Rhacophorus tuberculatus is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae found in eastern and northeastern India and southeastern Tibet, China.

The species is threatened by habitat loss.

Rhacophorus turpes is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to northern Myanmar. Little is known about this species that is only known from the original collection in 1937–1939 by Ronald Kaulback. The type locality, "Htingnan", is in Kachin State, with an approximate altitude of 900–1,200 m (3,000–3,900 ft) above sea level.

<i>Vampyrius</i> Species of amphibian

Rhacophorus vampyrus is a medium-sized species of flying frogs endemic to Vietnam. It is found in Southern Vietnam, and is not known to be found in other places globally. It Is in the kingdom Animalia, phylum Chordata, and class Amphibia. Along with this, it is in the order Anura, family Rhacophoridae, and it is the only member of the genus Vampyrus. It is also known as the vampire tree frog or the vampire flying frog because of the presence of a pair of fang-like hooks in the mouth of the tadpoles. Its Vietnamese name is Ếch cây ma cà rồng.

<i>Rhacophorus kio</i> Species of amphibian

Rhacophorus kio is a species of flying frog in the family Rhacophoridae and is found in the rainforests of southeast Asia, in countries such as China, Laos, Thailand, and Vietnam. Its ability to glide and its adhesive toe pads make it well adapted to its habitat of the rainforest. Before a 2006 study by Annemarie Ohler and Magali Delorme, R. kio and Rhacophorus reinwardtii were thought to be the same species. The common name black-webbed treefrog can refer to either species. Compared to other frog species in the area, R. kio not only creates a foam nest that holds their eggs, but also creates a structure with leaves that will wrap around the eggs. While the conservation status of the species is currently classified as of least concern by the IUCN Red List, R. kio faces habitat loss from deforestation to make space for agriculture and other human influences.

Rhacophorus vanbanicus, the Van Ban treefrog, is a frog. It is endemic to Vietnam. Scientists know it exclusively from the type locality, 900 meters above sea level in the Van Ban District. It is suspected in China's Yunnan Province.
