Wallace's Flying Frog - Rhacophorus nigropalmatus This was one of the hi-light during this trip to see this special Wallace 's Flying Frog - Rhacophorus nigropalmatus. Didn't get to see it flying though, which is rare. Can only see it flying if they are already at the top or higher up in the trees but this one was spotted at the Frog's Pond at Kubah National Park and it was around 1 meter height. It is resting on a type palm, which also gave its scientific name, nigropalmatus.
