Range Description

This species is widely distributed from northeastern India (Meghalaya, Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Nagaland, Tripura, Mizoram and Manipur) and Bangladesh, through Myanmar (Boulenger, 1893), western and southern Thailand (Taylor, 1962; Inger and Colwell, 1977), southern China (southern Xizang Province) (Fei et al., 1999), to Peninsular Malaysia (Berry, 1975; Manthey and Grossmann, 1997). It probably occurs more widely than current records suggest, especially in areas between known sites. It has been recorded at altitudes of 100-900m asl in Thailand and southern Viet Nam, but up to 1,800m asl in Peninsular Malaysia (Dring, 1979; Manthey and Grossmann, 1997), 2,100m asl in China and 2,200m asl in India. Records from southern Yunnan Province, Guangxi Province and Hainan Province in China, and from eastern Thailand, Cambodia, Lao People's Democratic Republic, and central Viet Nam refer to Rhacophorus rhodopus.
