Tonkin Bug-eyed Frog

Theloderma stellatum

Theloderma stellatum, the Taylor's bug-eyed frog, purple-spotted warted frog, spotty warted tree frog, stellar bug-eyed frog, or Chantaburi bug-eyed tree frog is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is found in Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam.

Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, subtropical or tropical periodically flooded lowland and montane forests between 0 and 1500 meters above sea level. This species deposits eggs in rain water collected in small tree holes; the tadpoles feed on the organic matter aggregated in a tannin-rich rain water. Notches aiming resin collection increase carrying capacity of the frogs providing additional breeding sites.
