One of the smallest frogs in the world in Borneo
2010/08/26 Elhuyar Zientzia
It has been discovered in Borneo and is one of the smallest ranges in the world. Small yes, but not silent. They have been found precisely by the sound made by males. Microhyla nepenthicola is baptized and its finding is announced in the journal Zootaxa. Males have a length of between 10.6-12.8 mm. No smaller frogs are known in Europe, Africa and Asia. In America, however, two other 9.8 mm frogs are removed: Gold frogs from Brazil and dwarf frogs from Monte Iberia of Cuba.
