Megophryidae View in CoL

Boulenophrys daweimontis (Rao and Yang, 1997) ( Fig. 3B): One specimen was found at night on the ground, near a stream in evergreen forest.

Boulenophrys palpebralespinosa (Bourret, 1937) ( Fig. 3C): Two specimens were found at night on leaves, at ca. 30–90 cm above the ground near a stream, and many other individuals were observed along streams at night in evergreen forest.

Boulenophrys cf. parva ( Boulenger, 1893) ( Fig. 3D): Two specimens were found at night on the ground, near a stream in evergreen forest. Boulenophrys parva seems to be restricted in Myanmar and records of this species in northern Vietnam should be assigned to other named and unnamed species (Manhony et al. 2020).

Leptobrachella eos (Ohler, Wollenberg, Grosjean, Hendrix, Vences, Ziegler, and Dubois, 2011) View in CoL ( Fig. 3E): Two specimens were found at night on the ground near streams and many other individuals were observed at night on the ground along streams in evergreen forest.

Leptobrachella minima ( Taylor, 1962) View in CoL ( Fig. 3F): Two specimens were found at night on the ground near a stream in evergreen forest.

Leptobrachella ventripunctata (Fei, Ye, and Li, 1990) View in CoL ( Fig. 3G): Two specimens were found on the ground near streams and many other individuals were observed along streams at night in evergreen forest.

Leptobrachium masatakasatoi Matsui, 2013 ( Fig. 3H): Three specimens were found at night on the ground near a stream in evergreen forest.

Ophryophryne pachyproctus Kou, 1985 ( Fig. 3I): Two specimens and many others were found at night on leaves, at ca. 50–120 cm above the ground near streams, and many other individuals were observed on leaves along streams at night in evergreen forest.

Xenophrys maosonensis (Bourret, 1937) ( Fig. 3J): Two specimens were found at night on the ground near a stream, and many other individuals were observed along streams at night in evergreen forest. This is a new record for Copia NR.
