Remarks. –
A single adult male (SVL 33.3 mm) matches the description of the
type
series (
n
= 3) from southeastern
Thailand
(Bauer & Das, 1998;
Dring, 1979
) in being small (SVL 34.5–40.9); having an additional phalanx in the second digit of the manus and pes (phalanges counted by the number of joints in the digit); eight preanal pores; no femoral pores; ventral and subcaudal scales smooth; fifth digit of manus only slightly shorter than fourth; snout relatively short, only slightly depressed; 21 or fewer subdigital scales (counted from the proximal interphalangeal joint to the toe tips) on digits 3, 4, and 5 of the pes; dorsal pattern with white paravertebral markings.
The specimen was found beneath the rain fly of a camping tent. This species has been previously reported from the Thai portion of the Cardamoms (Bauer & Das, 1996;
Dring, 1979
) so its occurrence in the northwestern Cardamoms is not unexpected. This represents a new species and genus record for
Cambodia
