The frog genus is distributed across east and southeastern Asia. Based on morphological differences and molecular phylogenetics, a new species of the genus occurring from Leigong Mountain in Guizhou Province, China is described. Phylogenetic analyses based on DNA sequences of the mitochondrial , , and genes supported the new species as an independent lineage. The uncorrected genetic distances between the , , and genes between the new species and its closest congener were 5.0%, 4.9%, and 16.3%, respectively. The new species is distinguished from its congeners by a combination of the following characters: body size moderate (SVL 39.1-49.4 mm in males, 49.7 mm in female); head width larger than head length; tympanum distinctly visible; small rounded granules scattered all over dorsal body and limbs; dorsolateral folds absent; heels overlapping when thighs are positioned at right angles to the body; tibiotarsal articulation reaching the level between eye to nostril when leg stretched forward; vocal sacs absent in male and nuptial pads present on the base of finger I.
蛙属分布于东亚和东南亚地区。基于形态差异和分子系统发育学，描述了一种来自中国贵州省雷公山的该属新物种。基于线粒体、和基因的DNA序列进行的系统发育分析支持该新物种为一个独立的谱系。新物种与其最相近的同属物种之间、和基因的未校正遗传距离分别为5.0%、4.9%和16.3%。新物种与其同属物种的区别在于以下特征的组合：体型适中（雄性体长39.1 - 49.4毫米，雌性体长49.7毫米）；头宽大于头长；鼓膜明显可见；背部和四肢散布着小的圆形颗粒；无背侧褶；大腿与身体呈直角时，脚跟重叠；腿部向前伸展时，胫跗关节到达眼至鼻孔之间的水平位置；雄性无声囊，第一指基部有婚垫。
