Within Sundaland, the species diversity of the genus Megophrys is richest in Borneo, with some species restricted to the northern highlands of the island. On the basis of molecular, morphological and acoustic evidence, we describe a new species of large-sized Megophrys, once confused with M. nasuta. The new species Megophrys kalimantanensis sp. nov. can be differentiated from all its congeners by large genetic distance more than 6.11\% in the mitochondrial 16S rRNA gene, much shorter rostral and orbital appendages, and unique advertisement call. This new species has been recorded from medium to high altitudes of mountain forest in southern and northernmost Borneo.

We compared morphological characters among Thai populations of Leptobrachium currently assigned to L. hasseltii or L. pullum. We also examined syntypes of the latter, which was first described from Vietnam as Megalophrys hasseltii var. pullus Smith, 1921, and designated the lectotype. The Thai populations are slightly variable in adult and larval morphology, but are collectively different from L. hasseltii (originally described form Java) or L. pullum. We therefore describe a new species, L. smithi, for those populations on the basis of the smaple from Khao Cong, southern Thailand.
