They consist of a large-sized distal ulcerous macrogland located rather close to the insertion of the thighs and thus almost in contact with each other. Consequently, the proximal granular gland field (by definition located proximally from the ulcerous macrogland) is basically absent in these frogs. Glands are typically coloured yellowish in life.

Both slight differences can be explained by potentially larger body size of the calling male and lower temperature during recording and leave no doubt about the conspecificity of the calls from the two localities.

However, the latter might be due to recording equipment and/or recording conditions, as the calls described above have a second frequency peak that roughly corresponds to the lower dominant frequency range described here. Call repetition rate (= note repetition rate = pulse repetition rate) is in the same range compared to the calls described above, ranging from 630857 calls/ min (741 ± 90 calls/min).
