Abstract
En 中文
A new species of the genus Ptyctolaemus Peters, 1864 is described from Yunnan Tongbiguan Provincial Nature Reserve, China. The new species phylogenetically formed a clade sister to P. namdaphaensis, but it can be easily distinguished from P. namdaphaensis by the difference in the color of the dewlap. The new species is superficially most similar to P. chindwinensis; however, it can be distinguished from P. chindwinensis by the difference in the color of the oral cavity and tongue. This discovery increases the number of named Ptyctolaemus species to six.
