starts withAdult males measure 30–34 mm (1.2–1.3 in) in snout–vent length. The overall appearance is slender. The head is slightly longer than it is wide. The snout is obtuse in lateral view and slightly tapering in dorsal view. The tympanum is distinct, but its upper edge is covered by the well-developed supratympanic fold. The fingers and the toes bear adhesive discs at their tips and have well-developed webbing. Dorsal surfaces are green with numerous black dots and few white dots posteriorly, without forming a clear pattern. The gular region and chest are bluish-green. The belly is white.
