Comment

Most similar to Rana nigrovittata and Rana mortenseni according to the original publication. Stuart and Emmett, 2006, Fieldiana, Zool., N.S.,, 109: 8-9, provided records for the Cadamom Mountains, southwestern Cambodia, and noted errors in previous literature. Fei, Ye, Jiang, and Xie, 2008, Acta Zootaxon. Sinica, 33: 199-206, provided a key to the close relatives of this species.
