It is most probably Kaloula pulchra (unless there exists an unidentified cryptic species of this genus in Cambodia).
Adam, Thank you
- I like to send you the rich of Kaloula amphibian habits - it is tree's frog only or not ?
Hello,
It's Kaloula pulchra and it's an interesting observation because the species is not often found on trees. Other species within the genus (K. borealis) also climbs trees in fall, for unknown reasons (see link below), and other species preferentially live on trees ( Blackburn et al. 2013. Evolution 67:2631–2646). If it's a (natural) recurrent observation it could be interesting to think about a natural history note to report the behaviour.
Best,
Amael

Dear Amael,
Thank for the notes. Yes, it is interesting to report this behaviour.

I have seen Kaloula pulchra climbing trees both in Thailand and in Bangladesh, in one case to a height of five meters.
I have a natural history note here detailing several observations of them climbing various structures in Thailand.
