Description
Pham and six co-authors report a new record and diet study of a poorly known treefrog in Vietnam, in work from twenty twenty-four. The white lipped treefrog Zhangixalus pachyproctus was described only in twenty nineteen. It had long been confused with a similar species across China, Vietnam, and Thailand.
Misidentified records were corrected when the new species was named from form and DNA evidence. The Vietnamese record extends its known range. Dietary ecology, what the frog eats, was documented from field samples. For a species known from few specimens, each record sharpens range maps and conservation assessments.
