Theloderma pyaukkya, the Burmese camouflaged tree frog, Burmese warty tree frog or Burmese bug-eyed frog, is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is native to China and western Myanmar. [2] [3] [1] [4]
The adult male frog measures about 28.0 to 31.5 mm in snout-vent length. The skin of the frog's dorsum is creamy or white in color. There are dark brown marks near its eyes. The toes of the front feet are red in color with tiny gold marks. [3]
Scientists named this frog pyaukkya after the Burmese language word for "camouflage" because of the frog's cryptic coloration. [3]
This frog lives in montane and submontane forests. Scientists do not know its breeding habits but assume it probably lays eggs in water-filled holes in trees like other frogs in Theloderma do. This frog has been observed between 266 and 1338 meters above sea level. [1]
The IUCN classifies this species as least concern of extinction. What threat it faces comes from deforestation, usually associated with agriculture. [1]
The frog's range contains many protected parks, such as Indawgyi Wildlife Sanctuary. [1]
Theloderma, the bug-eyed frogs, mossy frogs or warty frogs, is a genus of frogs in the family Rhacophoridae, subfamily Rhacophorinae. They are found from northeastern India and southern China, through Southeast Asia, to the Greater Sunda Islands; the highest species richness is in Indochina. Some species, especially T. corticale, are sometimes kept in captivity.
Leptolalax is a genus of frogs in the family Megophryidae. They are sometimes known as Asian toads, metacarpal-tubercled toads, or slender litter frogs, although many species-specific common names do not follow these conventions, and many species do not have common names. They are widely distributed in southeastern and eastern Asia, from southern China and northeastern India to the Malay Peninsula and Borneo. Leptolalax are typically small and have a cryptic colour pattern and no obvious morphological characters useful in systematic studies. Consequently, both molecular genetic analyses and analysis of advertisement calls by male frogs have been important in identifying new species.
Theloderma petilus, the slender warted tree frog or slender bug-eyed frog, is a frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is occurs in Vietnam, where it has been observed in the Muong Nhe Nature Reserve. It is also native to Laos and Thailand. Scientists think it may live in China.
Taruga longinasus is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to Sri Lanka. It has been observed between 150 and 1300 m above sea level.
Theloderma phrynoderma is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to Myanmar and known from two widely separated localities: Thao, its type locality in the Karen Hills in south-central Myanmar where it was collected by Leonardo Fea in 1888, and the Tanintharyi Nature Reserve in southern Myanmar near the Thai border where it was collected in 2009–2010. The common names Burmese bug-eyed frog, Burmese warted tree frog, and Tenasserim warty tree frog have been coined for it.
Theloderma licin, also known as the smooth frog and the white-backed bug-eyed frog, is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae found in peninsular Malaysia, southern Thailand, and Indonesia's Sumatra island. It inhabits lowland to montane forests. It can be found in water filled tree holes, bamboo cuts, or man-made objects like metal pipes.
Vampyrius 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.
Theloderma nebulosum, the misty moss frog, is a species of frogs in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to central Vietnam and currently only known from Ngọc Linh Nature Reserve in the Kon Tum Province. Only one female and a series of tadpoles collected in 2009–2010 are known. This species, together with Theloderma palliatum, was described by Australian and Vietnamese scientists in 2011.
Theloderma palliatum is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to Vietnam and so far only known from the Bidoup Núi Bà and Chư Yang Sin National Parks. This species, together with Theloderma nebulosum, was first found by Australian and Vietnamese scientists in Tay Nguyen in 2011.
Gracixalus is a genus of shrub frogs from south-eastern Asia.
Gracixalus medogensis, also known as the Medog bubble-nest frog or Medog small treefrog, is a species of shrub frog, family Rhacophoridae. As currently known, it is endemic to the Mêdog County in southern Tibet, although its distribution might extend into the adjacent Arunachal Pradesh, northeastern India.
Gracixalus quangi is a species of bush frog endemic to Vietnam, Laos, and China, where it has been observed between 550 and 1300 meters above sea level.
Gracixalus lumarius, also known as the thorny tree frog or thorny bushfrog, is a species of rhacophorid frog. It is endemic to Vietnam and first known from Mount Ngoc Linh in Ngoc Linh Nature Reserve, Kon Tum Province. It has been observed between 1700 and 2160 meters above sea level.
Gracixalus trieng, also known as the Trieng tree frog or Trieng bushfrog, is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to Vietnam and is only known from the area of its type locality, Ngoc Linh Nature Reserve in Đắk Glei District, Kon Tum Province. Mount Ngoc Linh and adjacent peaks form an isolated high-elevation area and the species is unlikely to exist elsewhere.
Theloderma albopunctatum, the dotted bubble-nest frog, warty tree frog, rough-skinned small tree frog, cobalt-gray warted frog, rough-skinned whistling tree frog, rough-skinned small tree frog, rough paddle-leg frog, white-banded small tree frog, white-patterned small tree frog, white-spotted bug-eyed frog, or pied warted tree frog, is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to China. Scientists believe it may also live in Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia. There are similar frogs in India, Myanmar, and Thailand, but scientists suspect these are a complex of related species.
Theloderma khoii, or Khoi's mossy frog, is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to northern Vietnam and southern China's Yunnan Province. It has been observed between 1320 and 1750 meters above sea level in Vietnam and about 1600 meters above sea level in China.
Theloderma truongsonense, the Truong Son bug-eyed frog, is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to Vietnam and Laos. It has been observed between 300 and 1300 meters above sea level.
Theloderma nagalandense, the Nagaland tree frog, is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to India. Scientists know it from the two type localities. Both are in Nagaland State, one 1196 meters above sea level and one 1421 meters above sea level.
Theloderma annae, Anna's bug-eyed frog or Anna's mossy frog, is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to Vietnam. It has been observed in the Ngoc Son–Ngo Luong Nature Reserve and Cuc Phuong National Park.
Theloderma auratum, the golden bug-eyed frog, is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to Vietnam and predicted in Laos. It has been recorded in montane tropical forest habitats.
