Supplemental Fig. 1. Maximum likelihood phylogeny of all described species of Nyctibatrachus derived from 2172 bp comprising two mitochondrial (16S and ND1) and one nuclear gene (TYR); newly sequenced individuals from intermediate populations used in this study marked in bold.

Supplemental Fig. 2. Invariant structure and shape of terminal digital discs (right third finger and left fourth toe) of species of Nyctibatrachus of the aliciae group of specimens collected in this study, following Biju et al. (2011). Individuals in each horizontal row belong to continuous populations; across the geographic range of N. aliciae (which encompasses all three unconfirmed candidate species described by Biju et al. [2011]). These specimens are deposited in the TNHM, Trivandrum, Kerala.
