 Remarks. – These match the specimens from central Vietnam assigned by Inger et al. (1999) to this species by having males and females not differing in SVL (males 48.1 – 60.0, mean ± SD 53.8 ± 3.2, N = 11; females 51.4 – 60.3, mean ± SD 55.9 ± 2.8, N = 13); the dark lateral band broken up by lighter colouration; often dark pigmentation, usually in the form of mottling, on the venter; males without gular pouches but with wrinkled skin at the corners of the throat; males with gray nuptial pads on the dorsal and medial surfaces of the first finger; and a conspicuous, pigmented gland on the proximal one-third of the upper arm, larger in males than females.   
Specimens were collected in shallow water and on sand, gravel and rocky banks of streams, usually in sections of streams with slow-moving water.  
This is the first report of the species from Cambodia.
