ResumoA new frog species from southern Vietnam of the family Megophryidae is described from the Ngoc Linh mountain (Kon Tum province, south Vietnam). Vibrissaphora sp. nov. is distinguished from other species of this genus by having the maximum number of keratinized maxillary spines, a different pattern of their arrangement and the most tuberculous integument. This new record is distant from the southernmost locality in the distribution of the Vibrissaphora genus for about 1000 km.
