}}Nanorana blanfordii (common names: Blanford's frog, Blanford's paa frog, Blanford's spiny frog, Blanford's hill frog) is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is found in northeastern India, southern Tibet (China), and eastern Nepal, and likely in the adjacent western Bhutan.[1][2] The specific name blanfordii honours William Thomas Blandford, a British geologist and zoologist.[5]

Description

Nanorana blanfordii are medium-sized frogs, though relatively small among their closest relatives:[6] adult males measure {{convert|39|-|47|mm|in|1|abbr=on}} and adult females {{convert|39|-|56|mm|in|1|abbr=on}} in snout–vent length. The snout is rounded. The tympanum is not very distinct. The finger and toe tips bears discs; the toes are webbed. The dorsum is grey-brown and has some black markings with white margins. There are two black triangular marks between the eyes. The underparts are white.

The tadpoles are up to {{convert|52|mm|abbr=on}} in length.[6]

Habitat and conservation

Nanorana blanfordii occurs in small streams and the surrounding grassland and temperate forest at elevations of {{convert|2600|–|3400|m|abbr=on}} above sea level. Breeding takes place in streams, and the eggs are laid in water under stones.[1]Nanorana blanfordii is rare in China, whereas its population size is unknown elsewhere. Threats to it are unknown. It occurs in the Yadong National Nature Reserve in Tibet.[1]
