About Amolops larutensis (Boulenger, 1899)
Male Amolops larutensis reach a snout–vent length of 35–45 mm (1.4–1.8 in), while females grow to 53–75 mm (2.1–3.0 in). This species has large adhesive discs on finger tips, and smaller discs on toe tips. Its skin is granular; the dorsal side is pale yellowish green marked with dark blotches, while the ventral side is white. Tadpoles of this species have large ventral suckers, which they use to attach to rocky surfaces. Amolops larutensis is a common, abundant frog species that lives on boulders and bedrock in and alongside fast-flowing, clear forest streams, found in both lowland and highland areas. It may be the most common frog species found in forest boulder streams across the entire Malay Peninsula. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) does not consider this species to be threatened.
