Susurra Gland Frog

Adult males measure 33–44 mm (1.3–1.7 in) and adult females 38–46 mm (1.5–1.8 in) in snout–vent length. The snout is rounded. The tympanum is distinct and the supratympanic fold is well-developed. The fingers and the toes are slender with slightly depressed tips; no webbing is present between the fingers while the toes have well-developed webbing. Dorsal skin has many dermal ridges of varying size. The dorsum is khaki-colored, whereas the abdomen is almost whitish anteriorly and yellow posteriorly. A mid-dorsal stripe is present in some individuals. Males lack vocal sac (present in G. rugosa). Tadpoles of stages 41–42 measure about 23–27 mm (0.9–1.1 in) in body length.

Glandirana susurra occurs near various bodies of water, such as rice fields, small streams, and ponds. It is known from elevations between 11 and 187 m (36 and 614 ft) above sea level. Spawning occurs in ponds from middle May to early August. Adult frogs and at least some tadpoles spend their winter in the mud under water. As of late 2019, this species has not been included in the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.

The specific name susurra is derived from the Latin susurrus meaning "whispering" and refers to the relatively quiet advertisement call of this species compared to those of other sympatric anuran (Hyla japonica and Rhacophorus arboreus).
