Figure 10

Materials examined. Seroja Camp (04°39.415′N, 101° 16.333′E), 2 July 2019 (GKR001, 080); Kijang Camp (04°40.482′N, 101°16.788′E), 4 July 2019 (HC1002).

Identification. Vomerine teeth present; body robust, head wide and casque-like; skin on dorsum finely gran- ular; upper eyelids and snout form long, pointed, dermal projections; skin at angle of jaws with sharp, dermal spines; supratympanic fold set upon a boney ridge; dorsal coloration brown; chin, throat and pectoral region brown with irregular light speckling and a pair of white spots on the chest. These characters are in agreement with Berry (1975).
