Kaloula rugifera, the Sichuan digging frog or Szechwan narrowmouth toad, is a species of frog in the family Microhylidae found in China.
It is endemic to China where it is found in Sichuan and extreme southern Gansu.[2]
Its habitats are hilly areas near villages. It has also been recorded from tree-holes. Breeding takes place in temporary pools and ponds. This previously very common is believed to be declining because of habitat loss associated with infrastructure development.[1]
Male Kaloula rugifera grow to a snout–vent length of about 39 mm (1.5 in) and females to 49 mm (1.9 in). Tadpoles are up to 31 mm (1.2 in) in length.[3]
