[3][2][4] The Samkos bush frog is relatively small, around 25 mm (0.98 in) in snout-to-vent length.

It has green-colored blood and turquoise-hued bones, a result of a pigment in waste products, biliverdin.

[6] The species is found in the jungle terrain of the Cardamom Mountains in southwestern Cambodia.

[5] It was found in Pursat Province in the Phnom Samkos area at 500 metres (1,600 ft) above sea level.

[1] Human expansion threatens the species, notably via a new, wide, graded road through the middle of the type locality.
