Chalcorana mocquardi

provided by wikipedia EN

Chalcorana mocquardi is a species of "true frogs" in the family Ranidae. It is endemic to Sulawesi, Indonesia, including some offshore islands.[1][2] It is probably similar in its ecological requirements to Chalcorana chalconota and is associated with small lowland forest streams. It occurs in both primary and degraded forests, provided that a reasonably closed canopy remains. Adults disperse more widely in the forest, whereas the tadpoles live in side pools and slow-flowing, deeper sections of the streams. No significant threats to this species are known.[1]
