Indopolystoma carvirostris (Fan, Li & He, 2008) n. comb. ( Table 4) View in CoL

Synonym: Polystoma carvirostris Fan, Li & He, 2008 View in CoL [ 19].

Type-host: Polypedates cavirostris Günther. Now Kurixalus bisacculus (Taylor) (Previously Rhacophorus bisacculus Taylor ) or Kurixalus verrucosus (Boulenger) (Previously Rhacophorus verrucosus Boulenger ) [ 21, 26].

Site: Bladder.

Type-locality: Pingbian county (22°56, N, 103°42, E), Yunnan province, China.

Remarks: Although the authors of the original description did not draw the marginal hooklets [ 20], the general morphology of this species, including haptor/total body length ratio (0.13) and hamuli shape (unbranched), is consistent with the diagnosis of Indopolystoma . Furthermore, a phylogeny based on partial 18S sequences only (unpublished results) showed that this species fell within the clade of Indopolystoma species.

Indopolystoma carvirostris was originally recorded in China from P. cavirostris . However, P. cavirostris only occurs in Sri Lanka [ 21]. According to Inger et al. [ 26], Chinese records of P. cavirostris likely apply to R. bisacculus or R. verrucosus .
