It was formerly considered Rana muscosa until a 2007 study elevated the more central and northern populations to full species status, restricting R. muscosa to the southern Sierra Nevada and southern California.[3] DescriptionThis species is very similar in appearance to the southern mountain yellow-legged frog, with which it was formerly identified.[2] Conservation statusShallow lakes that dry in summer endanger this high-elevation frog.[2] Predation by non-native trout also plays a large role in limiting breeding and tadpole development.[2] Many factors endangering the southern mountain yellow-legged frog also affect this species. ==Notes== 1. ^{{Cite journal | author = Geoffrey Hammerson | title = Rana sierrae | journal = The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species | volume = 2008 | page = e.T136114A4240654 | publisher = IUCN | date = 2008 | url = http://www.iucnredlist.org/details/136114/0 | doi = 10.2305/IUCN.UK.2008.RLTS.T136114A4240654.en | access-date = 12 January 2018}} 2. ^1 2 3 {{cite journal|author1=Igor Lacan |author2=Kathleen Matthews |author3=Krishna Feldman |title=Interaction of an introduced predator with future effects of climate change in the recruitment dynamics of the imperiled Sierra Nevada yellow-legged frog (rana sierrae) |journal=Herpetological Conservation and Biology|volume=3|issue=2|pages=211–223 |url=http://gis.fs.fed.us/psw/publications/matthews/psw_2008_matthews001.pdf |format=PDF}} 3. ^{{cite journal|last1=Vredenburg|first1=V.
