Photo by An- dró Koch. Distribution: Van Kampen (1907) was the first to record this species for the Talaud Islands (at that time as Hyla dolichopsis Cope, 1867, a junior synonym of L. infrafre- nata). According to Barbour (1912) it "(...) is the most widespread Hyla of this whole region [ the Indo-Aus- tralian Archipelago]". He listed four female specimens from Lining and Beo, on Salibabu and Karakelong, re- spectively. Later however, Van Kampen (1923) only states "Talaut Islands" without specifying the exact locality. Morphology: Van Kampen (1907) mentioned that disk size varies in this species. Thus, in specimens from Lirung for instance, the disks are smaller than the tympanum (in one specimen three vs. four mm). The same relation ap- plies to our voucher specimens where the disks are also smaller than the eye diameter. SVL of largest specimen (MZB Amph. 11492) mm; TiL: 62 mm. Males ex- hibit black rugosities on the inner side of the first finger. This is the case in our specimen MZB Amph. 11480.
