Zhangixalus schlegelii

Zhangixalus schlegelii (Zhangixalus schlegelii) is Schlegel's Green or Gliding Tree Frog, a Japanese rhacophorid with a compact green body and climbing toe pads. 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 is endemic to Japan and occurs on Honshu, Shikoku, Kyushu and the Ryukyu Islands; its name honours zoologist Hermann Schlegel. 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.
