Endemic to India's Western Ghats

Indirana yadera, the Yadera leaping frog, is endemic to India's Western Ghats. It appears to need both moist ground and leaf litter and some canopy cover, and the frog lays eggs on wet rocks (Wikipedia, general species account).

It differs from its relatives in several features, including a head wider than long, a long, narrow snout and a distinctive tympanum. The tadpoles are semi-aquatic and move across wet rocks and moss using their tails and hind legs, which grow in earlier than in other tadpoles (Wikipedia, general species account).
