Comment
Discussed by Bourret, 1942, Batr. Indochine: 378–379, as Cornufer tenasserimensis. See also accounts by Berry, 1975, Amph. Fauna Peninsular Malaysia: 87–88, and Taylor, 1962, Univ. Kansas Sci. Bull., 43: 459–462. See comment under Occidozyga borealis. Variously regarded by some authors as a Micrixalus or Platymantis. Nutphund, 2001, Amph. Thailand: 103, provided a brief characterization and photograph (which Ohler, 2003, Alytes, 21: 103, regarded as of Rana erythraea). Chan-ard, 2003, Photograph. Guide Amph. Thailand: 114–115, provided a very brief account, map for Thailand, and photograph. Chan-ard, Cota, and Makchai, 2011, Amph. E. Region Thailand: 133, detailed the distribution in Thailand. Chuaynkern, Simngam, Chuaynkern, and Duengkae, 2012, Herpetol. Rev., 43: 440, provided a record for Chiang Mai Province, northwestern Thailand, and commented on the range. Mulcahy, Lee, Miller, Chand, Thura, and Zug, 2018, ZooKeys, 757: 95, provided a genetically confirmed record from Taninthary Division, southern Myanmar. Niyomwan, Srisom, and Pawangkhanant, 2019, Field Guide Amph. Thailand: 296–297, provided a brief account (description, photographs, habitat, and range) for Thailand (in Thai). Zug and Mulcahy, 2020 "2019", Amph. Rept. S. Tanintharyi: 38–39, provided a brief account for South Tanintharyi, peninsular Myanmar. Zug, 2022, Smithson. Contrib.
