Tadpoles of this species have been described by Blommers-Schlösser (1979) under the name G. tornieri . The specimens had been collected in Foulpointe (sea level) at the East Coast of Madagascar. They had body lengths of 3.5–4 mm in stage 25, 8 mm in stage 27 and measured up to 15 mm in stages 31–40; general body shape as a typical type IV tadpole ( Orton 1953), oral disc laterally emarginated and bordered with papillae except for a wide dorsal gap; LTRF 1:4+4/1+1:2 to 1:5+5/1+1:2 ( Dubois 1995) or 5(2–5)/3(1) to 6(2–6)/3(1) ( Altig & McDiarmid 1999).
