Raorchestes sahai
Habitat
Dense forest near the Noa Dihing river; a tree hollow with rainwater; grass in a swamp; 600-1,200m
Range
Noa Dihing river near Gandhigram, Changlang district, Arunachal Pradesh
Raorchestes sahai, the Sahai bush frog, was found by the Noa Dihing river near Gandhigram in Changlang district, Arunachal Pradesh. It has been observed between 600 and 1,200 metres above sea level in dense forest near the river (Wikipedia, general species account).
One was found inside a tree hollow holding rainwater and dead leaves, and others have been seen perched on grass in a swamp. Scientists think it breeds through direct development with no free-swimming tadpole stage, like other Raorchestes, and that it might be the same species as R. parvulus, though more data are needed to confirm this (Wikipedia, general species account).
