Material examined. – Keo Seima: FMNH 262787 About FMNH , evergreen mixed with deciduous forest, UTM 0725385 1351814, coll. J. Walston, 18 Aug.2002 ; FMNH 261896 About FMNH , disturbed evergreen mixed with deciduous forest, 250 m elev., coll. J. Walston, May.2000 .

Remarks. – These two specimens (FMNH 262787 SVL 23.0, FMNH 261896 SVL 22.3.) agree with Boulenger’s (1886) description by having scattered white asperities on the dorsal surface; fingers without webbing; interorbital distance greater than width of upper eyelid; a grayish marking on top of the head, rear of lower back, and flanks; and a dark ventral surface with light reticulations.

Both were collected in artificial holes holding rainwater that had been cut by resin-tappers in large dipterocarp trees.

Ohler et al. (2002) reported the species from the mountains of southwestern Cambodia.
