Raorchestes nerostagona
''Raorchestes nerostagona'' is a species of frog in the Rhacophoridae family.
It is endemic to the Western Ghats, India. It is sometimes known as the Kalpetta yellow bush frog. It is also called the lichen bush frog for its patchy lichen like patterning that make it cryptic. First described in 2005 based on a specimen obtained in Kalpetta, the species has subsequently found to be distributed in many parts of the Western Ghats.
==Taxonomy==
The species was originally described in the genus ''Philautus'' but has since been moved into the genus ''Raorchestes''. The species name is derived from Greek ''nero'' for water and ''stagona'' for drop and refers to the call of the frog which is emitted from high up in the trees and resembles the sound of a raindrop falling into water. Like all other members of this genus, eggs are thought to develop into little froglets entirely within the egg-shell, although this direct development pattern was not directly observed in the species at the time of its description.
