A new species of Music frog (Anura, Ranidae, ) from Mt Daming, Guangxi, China.

, a new music frog species, is proposed, based on a series of specimens collected from Mt Daming, Guangxi, southern China. The new species is close to , , , and from southwestern and south-central China and northern Indochina, while the relationships among these species remain unresolved. sp. nov. can be distinguished from all known congeners by the genetic divergences in the mitochondrial 16S and COI genes, the behavior of nest construction, the advertisement call containing 6-11 rapidly repeated regular notes, and a combination of morphological characteristics. Furthermore, the populations recorded in Guangxi are clarified in this work, providing valuable new information on the knowledge of the genus .
