Ingerophrynus quadriporcatus was first recorded in Singapore on 12 December 1989 when a single individual was observed and photographed during a natural history filming session at SRF (Lim 1989b, 1989h). The individual was not collected, but was identified from photographs. After this discovery, I . quadriporcatus was frequently detected at SRF and at different localities such as NSSF ( Lim 1990b ), around MR (Lim 1994; Subaraj et al. 1995) and LP (Lim et al. 1995), and much later from BTNR, PT, and WC ( Baker & Lim 2012 ). Occurrence. Restricted to CNR, WC, PT. Common. Singapore conservation status. Vulnerable. Conservation priority. Moderate. IUCN conservation status. Least Concern [2020].
