Examined specimens.

Two adult females were collected from SRF (UMTZC1404 and UMTZC1495, SVL = 102-104 mm).

Identification.

Morphological characters of the specimens agreed well with the description of Chan et al. (2020a). Size (SVL: 102-104 mm, n = 2 females); moderately stout bodies; head without bony ridges; tympanum distinct; paratoid gland short and distinct; finger tips long and expended into broad discs; inner metatarsal tubercles larger than outer; body greenish with yellow spots and reticulations; venter finely granular. One male from areas near SRF was observed and photographed (Fig. 3G ).

Remarks.

The first collected specimen UMTZC1404 (Fig. 2H ) was from a small stream of the Bubu River, and UMTZC1495 was from a small stream of the Peres River, and the photographed male (Fig. 3G ) was from the latter location. Both preserved specimens were collected during the post-monsoon season at SRF. Both were seen on rotten logs and tree trunks within the vicinity of the small streams.
