A new species of Amolops(Anura:Ranidae)from northern Myanmar
DEAR EDITOR,
A new species of the genus Amolops,Amolops putaoensis sp.nov.,is described from northern Myanmar.The new species can be distinguished from its congeners by the following characters:(1)dorsolateral fold distinct;(2)upper-lip stripe white;(3)male body size 37.6-40.2 mm;(4)ground color of dorsal surface brown,flank green,small warts on dorsum;(5)two internal subgular vocal sacs present;(6)HL slightly shorter than HW;(7)two palmar tubercles present,supernumerary tubercles and outer metatarsal tubercle absent;(8)tympanum smaller than half of eye diameter;(9)vomerine teeth present;(10)tibiotarsal articulation reaching beyond snout tip;(11)supratympanic fold indistinct;(12)pineal body present;(13)finger webbing absent,presence of circummarginal groove on tip of first finger;(14)nuptial pads present.The population from Myanmar represented a distinct maternallineage within the Amolops monticola group and was recovered as a sister taxon to Amolops aniqiaoensis with strong support(100)based on concatenated data.Average uncorrected pairwise distances(P-distances)between the specimens from Myanmar and other species in the genus ranged from 2.69％(vs.A.aniqiaoensis)to 12.24％(vs.A.indoburmanensis)for 16S rRNA,6.14％(vs.A.aniqiaoensis)to 15.79％(vs.A.panhai)for CO/,and 9.66％(vs.A.aniqiaoensis)to 19.52％(vs.A.afghanus)for ND2.
