| Comment | |
| Etymology | The specific epithet wongchan is a name in apposition, invariable, based on the contraction of the localities of the paratypes (Wat Khao Wong) and of the holotype (Tham Khao Chan). In Thai wongchan also means the Moon, in reference to the typical crescent-shaped marks on the nape and dorsum of the new species. |
