Odorrana nasuta (Hainan bamboo-leaf frog) is a species of frog in the Ranidae family that is endemic to Hainan, China.[2] It occurs near streams in forested regions at elevations of 350–850 m (1,150–2,790 ft) asl. Breeding takes place in streams. It is threatened by habitat loss caused by smallholder farming activities and clear-cutting of forests.[1]
