Citation Peter Paul van Dijk, Nguyen Quang Truong, Bryan Stuart, Michael Wai Neng Lau, Geng Baorong, Gu Huiqing, Yang Datong. 2004. Rhacophorus dennysi. The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species 2004: e.T58987A11855235. https://dx.doi.org/10.2305/IUCN.UK.2004.RLTS.T58987A11855235.en. Downloaded on 17 September 2020. Description JUSTIFICATION Listed as Least Concern in view of its wide distribution, tolerance of a degree of habitat modification, presumed large population, and because it is unlikely to be declining fast enough to qualify for listing in a more threatened category. RANGE DESCRIPTION This species is known historically from northern Myanmar and China (Zhao and Adler, 1993). It is also known from northern Viet Nam and central Lao Peoples Democratic Republic. The type locality Singapore is clearly based on a traded specimen (Bourret, 1941). It is known from altitudes up to 900m asl. DESCRIPTION It is a rarely encountered species that is uncommon when encountered. HABITAT AND ECOLOGY It inhabits forests and riparian forests in hilly areas. It breeds in still waters such as paddy fields, pools, ditches, marshes and ponds. It is mostly restricted to primary forest. The call of this species is exceptionally loud. THREATS Its known areas of occurrence in Viet Nam continue to suffer from persistent processes degrading the forest, such as non-timber forest products collection, plantations, wildfires and changes to hydrology (BirdLife International 2001). Small numbers are also exported for the international pet trade. CONSERVATION ACTIONS Its range includes many protected areas. The rating of ‘Threatened’ for R. nigropalmatus in the 1992 Viet Nam Red Data Book (Tran et al., 1992) might refer in part to R. dennysii.
