Amphibians of the Western Ghats of India - a new field guide project

[Philautus]

Hey everyone! Glad to be joining the Frog Forum community.

I am a fellow frog enthusiast, and spent 2009 researching amphibian diversity in the poorly-studied Western Ghats rainforest of southern India. Our study found new populations of two critically-endangered Philautus frogs, both descibed to science by Biju in 2009. In collaboration with a conservation-based Indian NGO, I am now creating the first field guide to the amphibians of this region....

Please check out my video and support the project if you can.

Thanks!
