Two specimens (ZRC 1.118 97, female, SVL
25 mm
and ZRC 1.118 96, male, SVL
25 mm
) of a new rhacophorid
Chiromantis samkosensis
was described by
Grismer et al. (2007b)
having a relatively small SVL (
25 mm
); skin of body and limbs smooth; skin of head not co-ossified to skull; pupil horizontal; digits having disks with a ventromarginal groove and a transverse groove across the pad; fingers I and II without webbing, fingers II and IV nearly one-half webbed; fingers I and II oppose fingers III and IV; and toes at least three-quarters webbed.
Both specimens were found seated on leaves approximately
1 m
above the ground on the edge of a temporary rain pool in an open area along the edge of the main trail. They were part of a breeding chorus that included
Chiromantis nongkhorensis
and
C. vittatus
