Comment

See also Dubois, 1987 "1986", Alytes, 5: 43, who discussed this species. Accounts provided by Boulenger, 1920, Rec. Indian Mus., 20: 68; Liu, 1950, Fieldiana, Zool. Mem., 2: 277-278. Yang, 1991, Amph. Fauna of Yunnan: 122-123; and Fei, 1999, Atlas Amph. China: 218-219, provided a brief account, map, and figure.Not addressed, and therefore not assigned to subgenus, by Che, Zhou, Hu, Papenfuss, Wake, and Zhang, 2010, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 107: 13765-13770, and Che, Zhou, Hu, Papenfuss, Wake, and Zhang, 2010, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, Suppl. Inform., doi:10.1073/pnas.1008415107/-/DCSupplemental: 2. Huang, Hu, Wang, Song, Zhou, and Jiang, 2016, Integrative Zool., 11: 145, suggested that the earlier record from Husa, Yunnan, China, was based on a misidentified Nanorana yunnanensis. Zug, 2022, Smithson. Contrib. Zool., 653: 23, briefly discussed identification, habitat, and range in Myanmar. Tang, Liu, and Yu, 2023, Animals, 13(3427): 17, suggested that this species is unassignable to subgenus.
