The Sumatran puddle frog (Occidozyga sumatrana) is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It might be endemic to Indonesia. However, it has often been confused with Occidozyga laevis , and was also for long considered to be its junior synonym.
Its known distribution is restricted to Sumatra and Java, as well as Sipora and Simeulue islands. [1] The true distribution of this species is therefore poorly known but likely to be wider (perhaps from India through Malaysia to southern China). [2] Its natural habitats are tropical moist lowland forests, rivers, intermittent freshwater marshes, and canals and ditches. It is threatened by habitat loss. [1] However it has most recently been reported in Singapore on August 23rd 2018 [3]
Occidozyga is a genus of frogs in the family Dicroglossidae found in southeastern Asia between eastern India, southern China, and Java. They sometimes go under the common name Java frogs or floating frogs.
Aromobates saltuensis is a species of frog in the family Aromobatidae. It is endemic to humid lower montane forest of the Táchira state in western Venezuela. Its natural habitat is humid lower montane Andean forest. The male protects the eggs that are laid on land. After hatching, the male carries the tadpoles on his back to water where they develop further.
Pristimantis taeniatus is a species of frog in the family Craugastoridae. It is found in central Panama to Colombia, possibly to northwestern Ecuador. It is sometimes known as banded robber frog.
The palmated chorus frog is a species of frog in the family Microhylidae. It is found in Indonesia and Malaysia. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, rivers, and freshwater marshes. It is not considered threatened by the IUCN.
Amolops chunganensis is a species of frog in the family Ranidae. Its type locality, Kuatun village in Wuyishan, Fujian. It is endemic to central, southern and eastern China where it has a wide but scattered distribution ; records from Vietnam probably refer to Amolops mengyangensis.
Aubria subsigillata, commonly known as the brown ball frog or the West African brown frog, is a species of frog belonging to the family Pyxicephalidae. It has a discontinuous distribution from southern Guinea through Liberia and Ivory Coast, and from Nigeria to southern Cameroon, and Equatorial Guinea to Gabon. However, the species delimitation differs between sources, and the International Union for Conservation of Nature has adopted a narrower view where this species only occurs in Cameroon and southward.
Huia modiglianii is a species of frog in the family Ranidae. It is endemic to Sumatra (Indonesia). It was originally only known from two locations near Lake Toba, but is now known to be more widespread. The specific name modiglianii honors Elio Modigliani, an Italian anthropologist and zoologist who collected the holotype in 1891. Common name Modigliani's huia frog has been coined for this species. Morphological evidence suggests that it can hybridize with Huia sumatrana, but this needs confirmation using genetic data.
The Sumatran Torrent Frog is a species of frog in the family Ranidae. It is endemic to Indonesia. The informally assigned common name for frogs in this genus is torrent frog.

It lives in Southeast Asia and is also known as green paddy frog, red-eared frog or leaf frog. The last name, however, commonly refers to the Neotropical tree frogs which make up the subfamily Phyllomedusinae. These are not closely related to H. erythraea, belonging to family Hylidae instead.
