The Piasak-frilled swamp tree frog (Kurixalus appendiculatus) is a frog. It lives in Indonesia.[2][3][1]
This frog is smaller than most frogs in Kurixalus.[4]
People saw this frog near Pasak Village in Indonesia's West Kalimantan Province. It lives in a swamp with woody plants smaller than trees. Scientists think the tadpoles swim in streams but they are not sure.[1]
Scientists believe this frog is in danger of dying out because it lives in such a small place, and that place is changing. Human beings cut down the forests where it lives to build farms or towns.[1]
