Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Speciesbox

Chalcorana scutigera is a species of "true frog" in the family Ranidae.[1] However, it is a poorly known species that might actually be synonymous with Polypedates leucomystax. It is endemic to Peninsular Thailand.[2][1] Common names Haut Sanuk frog and yellow trea frog have been coined for it.[1]

Description

Chalcorana scutigera was described based on a single specimen, the holotype, which is a male measuring Шаблон:Convert in snout–vent length. The specimen was yellow when observed alive but turned paler when caught, with the yellow colour almost disappearing. The snout is rounded. The tympanum is very distinct. The fingers and toes are slender and bear well-developed discs; the toes are broadly webbed.[3]

Habitat and conservation

Habitat requirements of Chalcorana scutigera are unknown, but it presumably breeds in water.[2] The holotype was caught from a "cactus".[3] Threats to it are unknown, and it is also unknown whether it occurs in protected areas.[2]
