    Abstract:

    Egg mass development of the Leishan Moustache Toad (Vibrissaphora leishanensis) was surveyed from October 2015 through April 2016 in the Leigongshan National Nature Reserve. During the survey, 54 egg masses from 14 spawning ground were observed. Egg mass of this toad took 127.71 ± 1.38 d to develop from zygote to operculum (range 107﹣157 d, n = 54). Effects of air and water temperatures, and water depth to the embryonic development are of interest in further study.
