Hainan Bamboo-leaf Frog
Odorrana nasuta
Odorrana nasuta (Hainan bamboo-leaf frog) is a species of frog in the family Ranidae, endemic to Hainan, China. It occurs near streams in forested regions at elevations of 350–850 m (1,150–2,790 ft) above sea level. Breeding takes place in streams. The species is threatened by habitat loss caused by smallholder farming and clear-cutting of forests.
The genus Odorrana, commonly known as odorous frogs, is a group of frogs (Rinadae) which can be found mostly in East Asia. These frogs are typically associated with fast-flowing mountain streams and often exhibit a distinctive pointed snout. Odorrana currently includes 65 recognized species, with many endemic to China.
