Congratulations to Holiness Warjri on co-authoring the description of a new montane toad species, published in Taprobanica (Vol. 15, No. 2).

The study, "A New Montane Toad Species (Anura: Bufonidae: Duttaphrynus) from Mizoram, Northeastern India," used integrative taxonomy, combining morphology, morphometrics, and molecular data, to describe a new species from Phawngpui National Park.

Well done, Holiness! We're proud of your contribution to Indian herpetology and wish you many more discoveries ahead.
