Zhangixalus pachyproctus, the protruded vent tree frog, thick anus tree frog, or white-lipped tree frog, is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to eastern China, Vietnam, and Thailand and predicted in Laos and Myanmar. [1] [2]
The adult male frog measures approximately 74.2–83.3 mm in snout-vent length and the adult female frog approximately 102.4 mm. The frog has white stripes down the sides of its jaw, body, and legs. [3]
The Rhacophoridae are a family of frogs that occur in tropical sub-Saharan Africa, South India and Sri Lanka, Japan, northeastern India to eastern China and Taiwan, south through the Philippines and Greater Sundas, and Sulawesi. They are commonly known as shrub frogs, or more ambiguously as "moss frogs" or "bush frogs". Some Rhacophoridae are called "tree frogs". Among the most spectacular members of this family are numerous "flying frogs".
The Rhacophorinae are a subfamily of frogs in the family Rhacophoridae. They range from tropical Africa and Asia to temperate China and Japan.
Kurixalus is a genus of frogs in the family Rhacophoridae. The taxonomy of small rhacophids is difficult and has been subject to many revisions, but molecular genetic data do support monophyly of Kurixalus. These frogs are distributed from Himalayan front ranges of eastern India southward and eastward to Cambodia, Vietnam, southern China, Taiwan, and the Ryukyu Islands.
Kurixalus naso, also known as uphill tree frog, long-snouted treefrog, and Annandale's high altitude frog, is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is found in northeastern India, southern Tibet, and Bhutan. A related but unnamed species is found in Myanmar and Yunnan (China). Furthermore, it is possible that Kurixalus yangi is a junior synonym of Kurixalus naso.
Zhangixalus arvalis is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to western and southwestern Taiwan and is present in agricultural areas of Chiayi, Yunlin, and Tainan Counties. Common name farmland green treefrog has been coined for it.
Zhangixalus aurantiventris is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to Taiwan. It is known from scattered localities across Taiwan at low to mid altitudes.
Zhangixalus moltrechti is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to Taiwan, where it has a wide distribution in hilly areas. Common names Moltrecht's green treefrog, Moltrecht's treefrog, Taiwan treefrog, and Nantou flying frog have been coined for it.
The Taipei tree frog is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to central and northern Taiwan. It is a medium-sized tree frog; females are 4.5–5.5 cm (1.8–2.2 in) in snout-vent length, and males are slightly smaller 3.5–4.5 cm (1.4–1.8 in).
Zhangixalus viridis is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to the Ryukyu Islands, Japan, and known from Okinawa, Iheya and Kume Islands of the Okinawa Group. Zhangixalus amamiensis from the Amami Group was formerly included in this species as a subspecies.
Gracixalus is a genus of shrub frogs from south-eastern Asia.
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.
Zhangixalus yinggelingensis is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae endemic to Yinggeling National Nature Reserve, Hainan, China. Its specific name refers to the type locality, Yinggeling, a mountain range in central Hainan.
Nasutixalus is a genus of frogs in the family Rhacophoridae. The genus is found in northeastern India and adjacent southeastern Tibet as well as western Yunnan (China); the range might extend into the adjacent Nepal and Myanmar. Common name ridged-nose treefrogs has been coined for this genus.
Zhangixalus is a genus of frogs in the subfamily Rhacophorinae, family Rhacophoridae. They are collectively known as Zhang's treefrogs. They occur in the Eastern Himalayas, southern China, Taiwan, Japan, and southeast Asia.
Zhangixalus franki, or Frank's tree frog, is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It has been reported in China, in Yunnan Province, and in northern Vietnam, between 1320 and 1360 m above sea level.
Zhangixalus zhoukaiyae, the Anhui tree frog, is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae, endemic to China. It has been observed in the Dabie Mountains in Anhui Province.
Zhangixalus wui, the Lichuan tree frog, is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to China. Scientists know it exclusively from the type locality: Hanchi Village in Hubei Province. It has been observed between 1550 and 1840 meters above sea level.
Zhangixalus pinglongensis, the Pinglong tree frog, is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to Guangxi Province, China and suspected in northeastern Vietnam. It has been observed between 1500 and 2000 meters above sea level in evergreen forests.
