DistributionChina (Yunnan: Jinping County)

jinpingensis [type locality: Jinpling Junior High School in Jinping County, Yunnan Province (elevation 1260 m) (China) (original in Chinese)].  
Reproductionoviparous 
TypesHolotype: NRIBAS ? 78849, male (Nanjing Normal College) 
DiagnosisDiagnosis (jinpingensis): scansor pairs on dilated portions of digits II-V usually 3-4-4-4 in hand, 4-5-5-5 in foot*2, fifth pairs on digits III- V of foot not reaching outer margins of digits (Fig. 5); diameter of ear opening 0.5-0.7 mm, about 19-27% of eye diameter. The number of subdigital scansors of this subspecies is greater than those of H. y. iongliIlgensis and the nominotypical subspecies. From H. y. dushanensis, H. y. jinpingensis differs in having relatively small fifth scansor pairs on digits III-V, which do not reach outer margins of digits (from Zhou et al in Ota 1996). 
CommentSynonymy: after ZUG 2010 synonymized longlingensis, jinpingensis, and dushanensis with yunnanensis but GRISMER et al. 2013 elevated longlingensis (5 specimens), jinpingensis (4 specimens), and dushanensis (2 specimens) to full species status based on DNA sequence data but without any morphological diagnoses. Sung et al. 2018: 369 (Table 5) provide a character table for these 4 species but the characters are largely overlapping.

Distribution: see Figure 2 in GRISMER et al. 2013 for a map of this and other Hemiphyllodactylus species.

Behavior: nocturnal 
EtymologyNamed after the type locality.
