Nyctimystes intercastellus is a tree frog from Papua New Guinea. Scientists found it on three of the D'Entrecasteaux Islands: Fergusson Island, Normanby Island, and Goodenough Island.[1][2]
This frog is 3.9 to 5.1 cm long from nose to rear end. Scientists say it has more webbing on its feet than other tree frogs.[3]
