Comment

In a trichotomy with Microhyla and Glyphoglossus according to the original publication according to the original publication, where larval and adult morphology, skeletal anatomy, as well as molecular relationships were discussed. See comments under Microhyla for potentially relevant literature with which this genus was included until early 2021. Mahony, Kamei, Brown, and Chan, 2024, Vert. Zool., Senckenberg, 74: 256–258, disputed the morphological diagnosabilty of this taxon from Microhyla, but not its monophyly, and treated Nanohyla as a reciprocally monophyletic subgenus of the subgenus Microhyla, within a genus Microhyla.
