About Polypedates colletti (Boulenger, 1890)
Males of Polypedates colletti reach up to 52 mm (2.0 in) in snout–vent length, while females reach up to 80 mm (3.1 in). The snout is noticeably pointed, and the tympanum is clearly visible. The dorsum is most often brownish or grayish, and the majority of individuals have an hour-glass shaped pattern on the back. The belly is whitish-cream, and the throat may have dark vermiculation markings. The limbs have dark-colored cross-bars. Tadpoles of this species grow to 33 mm (1.3 in) in total length, and have a marbled pattern across the head, trunk, and tail. Polypedates colletti lives in lowland marshy evergreen rainforest areas, including mildly disturbed, selectively logged forest, at elevations up to 600 m (2,000 ft) above sea level. During the breeding season, this species forms groups around temporary rain pools; adult individuals perch on vegetation at a height of 1–2 m (3–7 ft). It is potentially threatened by habitat loss, and occurs within a number of protected areas.
