We report a new species of the genus Micryletta from the montane evergreen forest in the Bidoup-Nui Ba National Park,Lam Dong Province,Langbian Plateau,southern Vietnam,based on molecular and morphological evidence.The new species is diagnosed by a combination of the following morphological characters:body size small (snout-vent length(SVL) 22.4 mm,single female);iris uniform black;snout nearly truncate in dorsal view,slightly rounded in profile;tibiotarsal articulation of adpressed limb reaching level of eye;dorsal surface smooth;supratympanic fold present,prominent;outer metatarsal tubercle absent;tips of toes very weakly dilated into small discs;finger webbing absent,toe webbing rudimentary;dorsal surfaces of head and body orange-red with small irregularly shaped dark-brown patches;dorsal surface of limbs pale dark brown with small reddish speckles;body flanks dark brown anteriorly fading to grayish brown posteriorly with brown spots in groin area;lateral sides of head immaculate blackish brown without white patches;coloration of ventral surfaces immaculate dark gray.The new species is divergent from all other congeners in 16S rRNA gene sequences (2.6%-5.8%).Following the IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria,we propose the new species be listed as Data Deficient (DD).

Before 2008, the number of surface observation stations in China was small. Thus, the surface observation data were too sparse to effectively support the High-resolution China Meteorological Administration\'s Land Assimilation System (HRCLDAS) which ult
In this paper, a scheme of dual-Doppler radar wind analysis based on a three-dimensional variational method is proposed and performed in two steps. First, the horizontal wind field is simultaneously recovered through minimizing a cost function defined as
