starts withThe Samkos bush frog is relatively small, around 25 mm (0.98 in) in snout-to-vent length. It has a smooth body and translucent skin; its blood is externally visible. It has green-colored blood and turquoise-hued bones, a result of a pigment in waste products, biliverdin.
The species is found in the jungle terrain of the Cardamom Mountains in southwestern Cambodia. It was found in Pursat Province in the Phnom Samkos area at 500 metres (1,600 ft) above sea level.
