Abstract
The abundance and diversity of anurans were examined along a river at Teluk Kampi Penang National Park for three consecutive nights from 28th till 30th June 2011. Specimens were sampled along a 100m line transect along Sungai Kampi. The local assemblage of anurans was composed of five species with Commensal Frog Hylarana cf. labialis being the most abundant. The Shannon-Wiener Diversity Index (H') of the anurans obtained was 3.040 Simpson's Index (D) obtained from this study was 0.407 whereas Simpson's Evenness was 0.608. The results showed that the presence of anurans in term of species variety and abundance at this particular stretch of river is quite low. In spite of the variations of microhabitat along the stretch of Sungai Kampi the nearness to the sea limits the variety of anuran species at the site.
