Comment

See accounts of genus and species by Biju, Garg, Gokulakrishnan, Sivaperuman, Thammachoti, Ren, Gopika, Bisht, Hamidy, and Shouche, 2020, Zootaxa, 4878: 27–46. Dubois, Ohler, and Pyron, 2021, Megataxa, 5: 542, regarded Rohanixalus as a junior synonym of Feihyla. I (DRF) retain the name here because the evidentiary bases for the quite different phylogenetic hypotheses needs to be evaluated.

Rohanixalus baladika (Riyanto and Kurniati, 2014)
