Theloderma moloch is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is found in northeastern India (Arunachal Pradesh and Assam) and adjacent Tibet, China, possibly wider.[3] Taxonomic placement of this taxon has been a source of much debate, possibly because of wrong tissue was used for it in a molecular study—with ramifications for the taxonomy of whole Theloderma and its sister taxon Nyctixalus.[3][4]
Theloderma moloch is an arboreal frog associated with tropical forest and shrubland. Breeding takes presumably place in ponds. Its habitat is threatened by wood collection.[1]
