(med) Snow Frog (Phrin Las 1987). Between the frog (sbal pa) and the snow frog (skyin gor) there is hardly a difference in the thangka images. sbal nag is considered a toad (Yeshi 2017), but there are a few frogs known in Tibet. E.g. the Chinese Brown Frog, Rana chensinensis, covers a large part of western China, Tibet and Inner Mongolia. It is used in traditional chinese medicine. The small High Himalaya Frog, Nanorana parkeri, is found only on the Tibetan Plateau and Nepal, breeding at elevations from 2,800 m to almost 5,000 m, making it perhaps the highest elevation frog. It is the first frog to have its whole genome sequenced (amphibiaweb). [[User:Johannes Schmidt|Johannes Schmidt]] ([[User talk:Johannes Schmidt|talk]]) 19:33, 3 December 2021 (UTC)

Between the images of sbal pa (frog/toad)) and skyin gor in the Medical Thangkas is hardly a difference. sbal nag is identified with the Asiatic toad (Yeshi 2017), and the synonym gangs sbal is identified with the Mountain salamander. But there are some frogs known in Tibet. The Chinese brown frog, Rana chensinensis, covers a large part of western China, Tibet and Inner Mongolia. It is prescribed in the Chinese Paharmacopoeia for the drug Ranae Oviductus. The small High Himalaya Frog, Nanorana parkeri, is found only on the Tibetan Plateau and Nepal, breeding at elevations from 2,800 m to almost 5,000 m, making it perhaps the highest elevation frog (amphibiaweb).
