Speckle-bellied Metacarpal-tubercled Toad
Leptobrachella ventripunctata
Leptobrachella ventripunctata (known as Yunnan Asian toad or more elaborately, speckle-bellied metacarpal-tubercled toad) is a frog species in the family Megophryidae. It is known from Mengla County in Yunnan, southern China, from Phongsaly Province in northern Laos, and from Tam Dao in northern Vietnam. Its natural habitats are evergreen forests, montane bamboo forests, and rivers. It is likely threatened by the destruction of its mature forest habitat for agriculture.
Leptobrachella ventripunctata is a small species: males grow to snout-vent length of about 26.5 mm (1.04 in). Tadpoles are larger in terms of length, 48–50 mm (1.9–2.0 in).
