Abstract

In this article, brief notes on sexual dimorphism in anuran amphibians are adduced. A beak-like projection in adult males of larger species of Asiatic rhacophorid frogs (Anura: Rhacophoridae) was found to develop during the breeding period of species of larger sizes, and is herein described, illustrated and discussed.
