Kurixalus eiffingeri
Rare visitor: recorded only occasionally in this country
Eiffinger's Tree Frog (Kurixalus eiffingeri) is a rough-skinned, robust tree frog; adult males measure about 31–35 mm and females are larger. Identification should combine body shape, skin texture, colour pattern, toe structure and locality because related frogs can be extremely similar. Claims are limited to the species accounts opened for this batch (Wikipedia, general species account). Field identification should remain cautious when diagnostic measurements or clear photographs are unavailable.
It occurs in Taiwan and Japan's Yaeyama Islands in broadleaf, bamboo and mixed bamboo forest from roughly 50 to 2,000 metres. Information absent from those species-level sources is omitted rather than borrowed from relatives. Japanese occurrence follows the site's catalogue and the opened distribution account, without using IUCN conservation material (Wikipedia, general species account; Wildlife of Japan occurrence records). This wording keeps gaps in the available species evidence explicit rather than concealing them.
