  1. I'm guessing Mantidactylus (Gephyromantis) luteus again. I can't see all the relevant features, but the toes look right, the toe webbing looks right, and I can see the small spines above the eyes and the strong ridges. Posted 9 years ago
    1. Thank you so much John, you rock! Posted 9 years ago
  2. On another look, could be Mantidactylus (Gephyromantis) asper instead. asper has rough skin and luteus has smooth skin. From the part of the photo that's in focus, this looks pretty bumpy. Posted 9 years ago
