Himalayan Tree Frog (Polypedates Himalayensis)

A typical frog found in moist deciduous forest. This frog also found in semi-urban, especially in cities with extensive gardens or plants. Formerly, it was considered as a subspecies of the Indian tree frog. It is associated with freshwater habitat.

This frog was once considered conspecific with Polypedates maculatus.^[1]

Scientists believe this frog is not in danger of extinction because of its large range and tolerance to human-altered habitats.^[1]
