A new tree frog of the genus Rhacophorus is described on the basis of specimens collected from Kalasin and Roi Et Provinces, eastern Thailand. It can be distinguished from all other congeners by the combination of: moderate body size (about 38 mm in males and 44 mm in females); brownish dorsum with irregular, dark marking; third finger webbed broadly to base of disk or less on outer side, and fourth finger to distal subarticular tubercle or base of disk; and no dermal appendage on snout, vent, or heel. It is currently known only around the type locality, where habitats suitable for anurans are limited.
基于从泰国东部呵叻府和黎逸府采集的标本，描述了一种新的树蛙属（Rhacophorus）物种。它可以通过以下组合特征与所有其他同属物种区分开来：体型适中（雄性约38毫米，雌性约44毫米）；背部呈褐色，有不规则的深色斑纹；第三指蹼宽阔，延伸至指垫基部或外侧更短处，第四指蹼延伸至远端关节下瘤或指垫基部；吻部、腹部或脚跟处无皮褶。目前仅在模式产地附近被发现，那里适合蛙类生存的栖息地有限。
