| Research Abstract |
In order to clarify the origin of amphibian diversity in Borneo, lotic-breeding species were collected from Malay Peninsula and Borneo. Morphological, acoustic, and molecular phylogenetic analyses of these samples revealed that the Bornean amphibian fauna is highly endemic as a result of unique evolution through very long separation from adjacent areas, and that amphibian fauna of Malay Peninsula is also more highly endemic than has been considered.
