Hylarana eschatia is a species of true frog in the genus Hylarana. It is found in southern and peninsular Thailand, but is likely to be more widespread. It was split off from Hylarana chalconota in 2009 by Robert Inger and colleagues,[2] along with a number of other species.[1]
Description
Hylarana eschatia are moderate-sized frogs: adult males measure 31–40 mm (1.2–1.6 in) and females 43–57 mm (1.7–2.2 in) in snout–vent length. Body is slender and legs are long.[1]
