Summary description from Wikipedia:
Ingerophrynus divergens
Ingerophrynus divergens is a species of toad in the family Bufonidae. It is found in Malay Peninsula (Thailand, presumably Malaysia), Borneo (Brunei, Indonesia, and Malaysia), Sumatra, and Natuna Islands. It occurs in well-drained lowland rainforests. It breeds in standing water and slow-moving intermittent streams. It is widespread in suitable habitat but not abundant. It is threatened by habitat loss caused by clear-cutting.
This toad species is known to be a possible host for various helminths, including Seuratascaris numidica and Pseudoacanthocephalus bufonis. Both of which are novel appearances of these parasitic organisms in I. divergens.
