intermedia: Type locality: Sunda Islands restricted to Java.

Type locality: Pondichery (South India) and Java, restricted by Smith (1935 ) to Java. Lectotype locality: Java, Indonesia  
Reproductionoviparous 
TypesLectotype: MNHN-RA 2542, adult male, designated by Amarasinghe et al. 2022. Paralectotypes: MNHN-RA 2541 and (ii) MNHN-RA 2541A (both lost) and MNHN-RA 2543; Other specimens: RMNH, ZFMK, MZB, ZMH, ZMUC, TCWC, ZMB, UIMZ 
DiagnosisDiagnosis: A species of Bronchocela inhabiting the Greater Sunda Islands (Sumatra, Java, Borneo, and Bali), characterized as follows: morphologically most similar to its allopatric congener on Sumatra Island, B. hayeki (see Amarasinghe et al. 2022) and sympatric congener, B. cristatella, but differs by having a comparatively larger gular sac (smaller in B. hayeki and B. cristatella), ventral scales arranged in 10–12 non-enlarged rows (vs. 8–10 enlarged rows in B. hayeki and 10–14 slightly-enlarged rows in B. cristatella), lower number of mid body scale rows, 33–59 (vs. 64–75 in B. hayeki and 50–106 in B. cristatella), 1 or 2 upper dorsal scale rows directed upward (vs. 5–7 rows in B. hayeki and 4–10 in B. cristatella), well-developed nuchal crest (weakly-developed in B. cristatella) with cres- cent-shaped scales longer than ED (vs. lanceolate and shorter than ED in B. cristatella), enlarged scales on temporal region (vs. absent in B. hayeki), 3rd finger shorter than fourth (vs. longer in B. hayeki), the orbital area and the tym- panum mostly pale (vs. mostly black in B. hayeki), and tail colouration banded (vs. uniform in B. hayeki).
In addition, Bronchocela jubata is distinguished from other congeners by having the following combination of characters: adults reach a maximum SVL of 141.0 mm in males and 142.0 in females, 9–11 supralabials, 10–12 nuchal crest scales to the level of axilla, 56–73 ventrals, 30–37 lamellae on fourth toe, third finger shorter than the fourth; large lateral scales directed downward anteriorly and straight backwards posteriorly, 1 or 2 upper dorsal scale rows on the lateral body directed upward along the body, mid gular scales enlarged, abdominal scales acumi- nated and enlarged compared to pectoral, keeled temporal scales with some enlarged scales and 6 or 7 rows between orbit and tympanum, tympanum more than half the size of orbit. (Amarasinghe et al. 2022)

CommentDistribution: Records from Islands Salibabu (Sangihe) Karakelong and Talaud, south east of Mindanao cited by De Roij (1915: 123) could not been verified, but may be correct. A series of 14 specimens from Menado, Sulawesi, in RMNH formerly under B. jubata are redetermined as B. celebensis. B. jubata has been incorrectely reported from the Nicobar Islands (de Roij 1915, Smith 1935) but no voucher specimens exist according to DAS 1999 and own information.The occurrence in Southern India at Pondichery is questionably and may be due to introduced specimens. The species did not occur on Andaman Island (Das 1999). Specimens from Cambodia labelled B. cristatella” are B. jubata [Hallermann 2005]. See map (for Sumatra and N Java) in Amarasinghe et al. 2022: 411 (Fig. 1)
