Megophrys montana males can reach 92 mm in SVL while the larger females can grow to 111 mm. These frogs can be identified by the bizarre, elongated "horn" present on each upper eyelid, and a pointed snout. The pupils are vertical with a dark brown iris. There is a fold of skin separating the head from the body. Dorsally, the skin is generally smooth, with one or two pairs of dorsal ridges extending from behind the head down to the groin, but the dorsum may occasionally bear some black tubercles. Numerous tubercles are present on the flanks. The body shape mimics the appearance of a leaf (Lathrop, 2003; Iskandar, 1998). The color is similar to that of dried leaves, ranging from light brown to reddish brown in color (Lathrop, 2003). Young animals may be brick-red in color, with adults usually reddish to dark brown, and occasionally yellowish brown. The venter is mottled with brown and dark cream. A dark triangular blotch occurs behind the eyes. A pair of black tubercles or spots is generally present dorsally, near the insertion of the arms (Iskandar, 1998). Megophrys montana tadpoles have a funnel-shaped mouth, with turned-up and laterally expanded lips, allowing feeding at the surface of the water (Iskandar, 1998). The tail is elongated, with a rounded tip (Iskandar, 1998). The larval body and tail are brown (Lathrop, 2003).The diploid chromosome number is 26, with five large pairs and eight smaller ones (Iskandar, 1998).

Megophrys montana is endemic to Java. It inhabits leaf litter on the forest floor of dense tropical rainforest, both primary and secondary forest (Iskandar, 1998), and has very rarely also been seen on plantations (Lathrop, 2003). It is found at higher elevations, up to 2200 m (Lathrop, 2003).

This frog lives in leaf litter and remains immobile unless touched or molested (Iskandar, 1998). Frogs in the genus Megophrys rely on camouflage for defense; they move by short hops, since the combination of large, wide heads and bodies and short, slender legs hampers long jumps (Inger and Stuebing, 2005) and makes them rather clumsy (Wogan, pers. comm.). During the mating season, Megophrys montana males make a single loud "kang" as their mating call, particularly when there is a full moon (Iskandar, 1998). Breeding behavior has not yet been described but is assumed to be similar to a related species, Megophrys nasuta. In Megophrys nasuta, and presumably also Megophrys montana, adults move from the forest to the edges of streams in order to breed (Inger and Stuebing, 2005). Megophrys montana eggs are colorless (Iskandar, 1998).

Megophrys montana
(
Inglês

fornecido por wikipedia EN
Megophrys montana (Asian horned frog, horned frog, Asian spadefoot toad, Javan horned frog, Malayan leaf frog) is a species of frog found in Java and possibly Sumatra.[2][3]
Description
Megophrys montana is a relatively large frog: males can reach 92 mm (3.6 in) in snout-vent length and females 111 mm (4.4 in). As their common name suggests, these frogs have "horns": their upper eyelids have horn-like elongations.[3]
Distribution and habitat
Known with certainty only from Java and possibly from western Sumatra, Indonesia. Records of Megophrys montana outside this range (from Thailand southeast to Sumatra, Natuna Islands, Borneo, and the Philippines) apply to related named and unnamed species.[2] They occur from near sea level up to at least 1,200 m (3,900 ft). Megophrys montana live on the forest floor in primary and secondary forests, and to some extent, plantations.[1]
Behaviour
These frogs are relatively clumsy and rely on camouflage for defense. They do not move unless touched or molested.[3]

Bangkong bertanduk
(
Indonésio
)
fornecido por wikipedia ID
Bangkong bertanduk atau katak bertanduk adalah sejenis kodok dari suku Megophryidae. Nama ilmiahnya adalah Megophrys montana Kuhl & van Hasselt, 1822. Namanya dalam bahasa Inggris adalah horned frog.
Pemerian
Katak yang bertubuh pendek agak gendut, kepala besar dengan runcingan kulit di atas kedua mata dan di ujung moncong. Sepasang runcingan kulit yang lain, yang lebih kecil, terdapat di ujung-ujung rahang. Ukuran tubuh umumnya sedang sampai besar, 60–95 mm; katak jantan lebih kecil daripada betinanya.
Dorsal (bagian punggung) berkulit halus, coklat pucat kemerahan sampai coklat tua, dengan sepasang lipatan kulit di punggung, mulai dari bagian tengkuk hingga ke pinggang. Sering dengan sepasang bintil hitam kecil di pundak. Kadang-kadang terdapat sepasang lipatan kulit yang lebih samar dan lebih pendek di masing-masing sisi lateral tubuh, di belakang tangan hingga ke pinggang. Kaki dan tangan lebih kekuningan, dengan lipatan-lipatan kulit melintang bertepi hitam, membentuk coret-coret hitam. Warna hitam juga terdapat di sekitar dan di belakang mata. Iris mata berwarna kemerahan.
Ventral (sisi bawah tubuh) abu-abu keputihan, dengan bintil-bintil agak kasar. Bagian depan kecoklatan kotor, dengan bercak-bercak dan bintik-bintik hitam yang kurang lebih simetris di dagu, leher, tangan dan kaki. Selaput renang di kaki sangat pendek.
Kebiasaan dan Penyebaran
Penyamaran yang sempurna dari warna dan bentuk tubuh katak ini di lantai hutan, menyebabkan bangkong bertanduk sulit dikenali di siang hari. Katak ini kerap bersembunyi di bawah serasah hutan, dan baru pada malam hari aktif menjelajahi lantai hutan hingga ke pinggiran sungai. Berudu katak bertanduk memiliki mulut serupa corong, biasanya ditemukan di bagian sungai yang menggenang atau yang kurang berarus.
M. montana menyebar terbatas di Jawa, dan Sumatra Barat (?). Di Jawa, terutama didapati di pegunungan, di atas 800 m dpl.
