It is endemic to Borneo where it is widespread and found in Brunei, Indonesia, and Malaysia,[2] typically in the lowlands but sometimes as high as {{convert|1100|m|abbr=on}} above sea level.][ This species has prominent, sharp ridges behind the eye, above the ear, referred to in its names.][[5]]TaxonomyPolypedates pseudotilophus from Sumatra and (probably) Java was included in this species until 2014.[2]DescriptionMales measure up to {{convert|80|mm|abbr=on}} and females up to {{convert|100|mm|abbr=on}} in snout–vent length.[ The body is robust and dorsally lemon yellow in color, with many thin, black stripes; also the thighs have many black bars. The tympanum is conspicuous, with a serrated bony crest above it (the "ear"). Fingertips are expanded into large discs; those on the toes are smaller. The fingers have only rudimentary webbing whereas the toes are moderately webbed.[12] The tadpoles are yellowish green above and white below, acquiring the stripes seen in adults well before metamorphosis.[12] The largest tadpoles are {{convert|60|mm|abbr=on}} in total length.] Habitat and conservationPolypedates otilophus typically occurs in secondary habitats, at the edges of primary forest, and also in villages.[12] They are most easily spotted at suitable breeding ponds where adults perch on vegetation 1–4 m above the ground.[ It is not considered a threatened species by the IUCN.[1]]References1. ^1 {{cite journal | author = Inger, R. | author2 = Stuebing, R. | author3 = Iskandar, D. | author4 = Mumpuni |last-author-amp=yes | title = Polypedates otilophus | journal = IUCN Red List of Threatened Species | volume= 2004 | page = e.T58962A11862860 | year = 2004 | doi = 10.2305/IUCN.UK.2004.RLTS.T58962A11862860.en }} N.b.
