Abstract
Newly discovered, this unique creature is already under threat from dam projects.
The discovery of the purple or pignose frog Nasikabatrachus sahyadrensis was recently reported by two groups (see Nature 425, 711–714; 2003, and Current Science 86, 211–216; 2004). The sole member of the family Nasikabatrachidae, this creature evolved some 50 million years earlier than any other known frog in India.
