Comment

See Boulenger, 1920, Rec. Indian Mus., 20: 149; Taylor, 1962, Univ. Kansas Sci. Bull., 43: 427-43, and Bourret, 1942, Batr. Indochine: 326-327, for accounts. See also Berry, 1975, Amph. Fauna Peninsular Malaysia: 79-80. Inger, Orlov, and Darevsky, 1999, Fieldiana, Zool., N.S.,, 92: 43, doubted the Vietnam records of Tran, Nguyen, and Ho, 1981, Res. Basic Invest. Fauna N. Vietnam. Orlov, Murphy, Ananjeva, Ryabov, and Ho, 2002, Russ. J. Herpetol., 9: 90, suggested that records for this species in Vietnam are in error. Nutphund, 2001, Amph. Thailand: 115, provided a brief characterization and photograph, which Ohler, 2003, Alytes, 21: 100-102, was of Sylvirana cubitalis (as Rana). Chan-ard, 2003, Photograph. Guide Amph. Thailand: 126-127, provided a very brief account, map for Thailand, and photograph.
