The poorly-known, insular endemic frog species, Minervarya nicobariensis (Stoliczka, 1870) is re-described based on new material from the Nicobar Archipelago. A neotype is designated as its holotype had been lost. Novel data on biology, ecology, distribution and natural history of this poorly known species are provided. Breeding biology and larval morphology are described in detail. Potential threats to the species are discussed and an assessment of its conservation status is attempted.

A new insular, endemic species of microhylid frog of the genus Kalophrynus is described from Tioman Island, off the southeastern coast of Pahang, Peninsular Malaysia. Kalophrynus tiomanensis sp nov. can be differentiated from its congeners by the following combination of characters: SVL 21.4–26.3 mm; reduced webbing on toes; outer metatarsal tubercle absent; large, black inguinal spot and unique markings on dorsum. This discovery increases the number of endemic species of amphibians on Tioman Island to at least three.
