Ansonia lumut sp. nov. is assigned to the genus Ansonia based on its phylogenetic placement and the following morphological characters: small body size; slender limbs; no parotoid glands; weak subarticular tubercles; and membranous foot webbing (Inger 1960, 1992). Ansonia lumut sp. nov. can be differentiated from all other congeners by the following combination of characters: SVL 21–23.6 mm in males, 27.7–31.6 mm in females; first finger shorter than second; absence of interorbital and tarsal ridges; distinct dorsal tubercles and dorsolateral row of enlarged tubercles; finger tips not expanded into discs; slightly less than two phalanges free of web on fifth toe; light interscapular spot and light patch below eye absent; presence of large, yellow rictal tubercle; dorsum black with greenish-yellow reticulations; flanks with small yellow spots; fore and hind limbs with yellow crossbars; venter light gray with fine, white spotting; males with nuptial pads on first finger.

Dorsal base color dark brown to black. Top of head, lores and back with yellow reticulations bearing greenish flecks. Large, yellow tubercle at rictus, followed anteriorly by smaller yellow tubercle at posterior end of upper lip.

All paratypes closely resemble holotype in coloration and pattern. Female paratypes (LSUHC 11211, 11214) have additional yellow tubercle below tympanum between rictal and posterior upper labial tubercle, tubercle on right side larger than one on the left. Male paratypes (LSUHC 10899, 11172) smaller in size, SVL 21.0 mm and 23.6 mm respectively. Vocal slit present on left side of mouth leads into median subgular vocal sac. Small, indistinct nuptial pad of brown asperities on medial surface of first finger between base and distal phalangeal joint. Nuptial pad not visible on LSUHC 10899. Comparisons. Morphological data for species comparisons were obtained from Wood et al. (2008), Wilkinson et al. (2012), and material examined (see Appendix). Ansonia lumut sp. nov. is most closely related to three other Peninsular Malaysian species, A. malayana, A. penangensis, and A. jeetsukumarani but can be morphologically distinguished from them by the absence of a light interscapular spot (vs. present in A. malayana, A. penangensis, and A. jeetsukumarani), dorsum with greenish-yellow reticulations (vs. orange hourglass-shaped lines in A. malayana, almost uniform black in A. penangensis and A. jeetsukumarani), large, yellow rictal tubercle (vs. whitish in A. malayana, A. penangensis, and A. jeetsukumarani), and yellow cross-bars on limbs (vs. orange in A. malayana, A. penangensis, and A. jeetsukumarani). On the Thai-Malay Peninsula and Indochina, it differs from A. latiffi by smaller body size in males (vs. SVL 34.1–38.2 mm) and females (vs. SVL 50.5–50.7 mm), first finger shorter than second (vs. first finger reaching tip of second), absence of tarsal ridge (vs. presence), dorsum blackish with greenish-yellow reticulations (vs. almost uniform brown), presence of large, yellow rictal tubercle (vs. absence), and yellow crossbars on limbs (vs. pale orange); from A. latirostra by the absence of interorbital ridges (vs. present), no rictal gland (vs. present), and greenish-yellow reticulations on dorsum (vs. almost uniform black); from A. tiomanica by smaller body size in males (vs. SVL 31.2 mm) and females (vs. SVL 38.4 mm), and greenishyellow reticulations on dorsum (vs. yellow spots); from A. endauensis by having blackish dorsum with greenishyellow reticulations (vs. almost uniform black), and yellow crossbars on limbs (vs. orange); from A. siamensis by smaller body size in males (vs. SVL 28.0 mm) and females (vs. SVL 35.0 mm), finger tips not expanded into discs (vs. expanded into distinct discs), distinct dorsal tubercles (vs. reduced or absent), presence of large, yellow rictal tubercle (vs. absence), and slightly less than two phalanges free of web on fifth toe (vs. one phalanx free); from A. kraensis by the absence of a light interscapular spot (vs. present), presence of large, yellow rictal tubercle (vs. absence); slightly less than two phalanges free of web on fifth toe (vs. half phalanx free), dorsum with greenishyellow reticulations (vs. dorsum brown with darker hourglass-shaped pattern), and venter light gray with fine, white spots (vs. dark brown with distinct, white reticulations); from A. inthanon Matsui, Nabhitabhata & Panha by larger body size in females (vs. SVL 23.3–25.2 mm), absence of light, interscapular spot (vs. presence), presence of large, yellow tubercle (vs. absence), dorsum blackish with greenish-yellow reticulations (vs. brown with lighter, indistinct markings), presence of dorsolateral row of enlarged tubercles (vs. absence), slightly less than two phalanges free of web on fifth toe (vs. one phalanx free), and venter light gray with fine, white spots (vs. brown with bright yellow blotches); from A. thinthinae by the absence of a light patch below eye (vs. presence), absence of light interscapular spot (vs. presence), dorsum black with greenish-yellow reticulations (vs. dark brown, lacking distinct markings), slightly less than two phalanges free of web on fifth toe (vs. half phalanx free), venter light gray with fine, white spots (vs. dark brown with yellow reticulations), and males with nuptial pads on first finger (vs. nuptial pad covering first and second fingers). Differences between the new species and other geographically and phylogenetically distant congeners are summarized in Wood et al. (2008: Table 1). Distribution and natural history. Ansonia lumut sp. nov. occurs in hill dipterocarp forest on Gunung Tebu (at 610 m elevation) and Gunung Lawit (at 790–1280 m elevation; Dring 1979) in the northeastern state of Terengganu (Fig. 4). During the day, specimens were found in small rock fissures along a slow moving stream. The stream was approximately 5 m wide under a semi-closed canopy forest and consisted of dark-colored granite rock covered with algae and moss (Fig. 5). At night, toads were found on rocks and small, overhanging vegetation within the stream and along its banks away from strong torrent zones. Female paratype LSUHC 11214 was found to be gravid with unfertilized, unpigmented eggs that were approximately 1.7–1.8 mm in diameter. Etymology. The specific epithet “ lumut ” is derived from the Malay word for moss, in reference to the new species’ color pattern, which gives it a mossy appearance. Suggested English name: Mossy Stream Toad; Malay name: Kodok lumut.Published as part of Chan, Kin Onn, Wood Jr, Perry L., Anuar, Shahrul, Muin, Mohd Abdul, Quah, Evan S. H., Sumarli, Alexandra X.
