Zhangixalus feae is a biology topic covered in the lgStudy science library. This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand Zhangixalus feae rather than just read about it. In short: Zhangixalus feae is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is found in southwestern Yunnan (China), northern Laos, northern and central highlands of Vietnam, northern Thailand, and Myanmar.

Key takeaways

Zhangixalus feae belongs to biology; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect Zhangixalus feae to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of Zhangixalus feae from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

Zhangixalus feae is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is found in southwestern Yunnan (China), northern Laos, northern and central highlands of Vietnam, northern Thailand, and Myanmar. The specific name feae honors Leonardo Fea, an Italian explorer, zoologist, and naturalist. Its natural habitats are closed-canopy evergreen rainforests, but it can adapt to human presence. It has been observed between 600 and 1400 meters above sea level. The frog's range includes protected parks: Hoang Lien National Park, Ngoc Linh Nature Reserve, and Phou Dendin National Biodiversity Conservation Area. This frog is threatened by habitat loss associated with road and infrastructure construction and tourism. People occasionally collect this frog to eat or to keep and breed for the pet trade, but it is unclear if this still poses a threat. Zoos sometimes display this frog because of its striking coloration. Individuals of Zhangixalus feae are capable of gliding by spreading the webbing between their fingers and toes. They eat small invertebrates, including insects, spiders, and millipedes.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Zhangixalus feae

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Zhangixalus feae claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In biology, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Zhangixalus feae before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Zhangixalus feae ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Zhangixalus feae

In research: Zhangixalus feae appears in biology research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Zhangixalus feae in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Zhangixalus feae is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics Amphibians described in 1893, Amphibians of China, Amphibians of Laos, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Zhangixalus feae outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
