    This one looks like Mantadactylus (Gephyromantis) luteus to me. It has the same shape, ridge pattern, toe banding, etc. to match the photos in Glaw & Vences. Posted 9 years ago

      Thank you, John! Amazing how some amphibian species can differ so much in color. Perhaps that is why I find it so difficult to identify them: I take color as a main trait, but it's not :) Posted 9 years ago
