Abstract

A study on the diversity of anurans at Trus Madi, Sabah, was carried out at three sites on 30th October – 4th November 2001. The study was aimed to draw up an inventory of anurans at Trus Madi, as well as enhance the anuran collection of BORNEENSIS, Institute for Tropical Biology and Conservation (ITBC), Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS). Anurans were located through opportunistic examination, calls, and eye shines due to reflection from torchlights and headlamps. A total of 11 species from seven genera and five families were sampled. The study also contributed voucher specimens of three species to BORNEENSIS, namely Leptobrachella baluensis, Rhacophorus harrissoni and Philautus bunitus.
