The Malayan mossy frog is the largest of its group in Malaysia, and lives in hilly rainforest. This species is heavily warted along the back, with clusters of yellow-fringed tubercles forming a ridge from behind the eye, gently moving along each shoulder until it tapers off towards the vent. The feet are webbed and disks on each toe tinged with reddish orange. The eyes are reddish brown in juveniles, but become greyish brown in adults. The ventral is bluish white with a reticulated pattern of bluish white and black blotches.In Southeast Asia, this mossy frog species is restricted to Peninsular Malaysia and Sumatra in Indonesia. The call is a very soft moan.
