A new species, J. Wang, Lyu, & Y.Y. Wang, is described based on a series of specimens collected from the Yunkaishan Nature Reserve located in the southern Yunkai Mountains, western Guangdong Province, China. The new species is a sister taxon to with a genetic divergence of 8.0-8.5% in the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene, and differs from all known congeners by a combination of the following morphological characters: (1) body size moderate, SVL 37.8-56.0 mm in males, 42.6-60.8 mm in females; (2) dorsal ground color brown; ventral surface green to yellow-green, but light blue-green on chin and throat, posteriorly green in adult males; (3) dorsolateral lines paired, strikingly yellowish-white bordered by black above and below, invisible or indistinct in juveniles and adult females; (4) flanks of body blackish brown with light brown marks in adult males; (5) presence of four pairs of chin-shields; (6) four supraoculars on each side; (7) presence of a row of supracilary granules that separate supracilaries from supraoculars; (8) two postnasals; (9) enlarged dorsal scales in six longitudinal rows on trunk of body, with strong keel; (10) enlarged ventral scales in six longitudinal rows, strongly keeled in males, smooth but outermost rows weakly keeled in females; (11) enlarged and keeled lateral scales in a row above ventrals; (12) femoral pores 2-3 on each side; (13) subdigital lamellae 20-23 under the fourth finger, 23-30 under the fourth toe; and (14) the first 2-3 subdigital lamellae under the fourth toe divided. The discovery of brings the total number of species of this genus to 24, of which nine occur in mainland China.
基于从中国广东省西部云开山脉南部的云开山自然保护区采集的一系列标本，描述了一个新物种，即王某某、吕某某和王某某（此处J. Wang, Lyu, & Y.Y. Wang 应为人名，具体准确翻译需结合实际背景，这里暂保留英文）。该新物种是[此处原文可能遗漏了对比物种名称]的姐妹分类单元，线粒体细胞色素b基因的遗传差异为8.0 - 8.5%，并且在形态特征上与所有已知同属物种存在以下组合差异：(1) 体型适中，雄性的体长（SVL）为37.8 - 56.0毫米，雌性为42.6 - 60.8毫米；(2) 背部底色为棕色；腹面为绿色至黄绿色，但下巴和喉部为浅蓝绿色，成年雄性的后部为绿色；(3) 背侧线成对，上下边缘由黑色显著勾勒出黄白色，在幼体和成年雌性中不可见或不明显；(4) 成年雄性身体两侧为黑褐色，带有浅褐色斑纹；(5) 有四对颏片；(6) 每侧有四个眶上鳞；(7) 存在一排眶上颗粒，将眶上鳞与眉鳞分开；(8) 有两个后鼻鳞；(9) 身体躯干部位有六排纵向扩大的背鳞，具强棱；(10) 有六排纵向扩大的腹鳞，雄性具强棱，雌性光滑但最外侧一排具弱棱；(11) 腹鳞上方有一排扩大且具棱的侧鳞；(12) 每侧有2 - 3个股孔；(13) 第四指下方有20 - 23个指下瓣，第四趾下方有23 - 30个趾下瓣；以及(14) 第四趾下方的前2 - 3个指下瓣分开。该[此处原文可能遗漏了新物种名称]的发现使该属物种总数达到24种，其中9种分布于中国大陆。
