Abstract
- Rhacophorus kajau has been tranferred to Feihyla, R. appendiculatus to Kurixalus.
- Direct development evolved two times independently within Rhacophorinae.
- Presence of jelly-coated clutches in Feihyla confirms the generic reassignment of F. kajau.
- Diversity of Bornean rhacophorids result from repeated dispersal and vicariance events.
- Monophyletic clades of endemic species are the result of local radiations on Borneo.
