Chinese flying frog

The Chinese flying frog or Chinese gliding frog (Zhangixalus dennysi) is a species of tree frog in the family Rhacophoridae found in China, Laos, Burma, and Vietnam. It is also known as Blanford's whipping frog, large treefrog, and Denny's whipping frog.

It is up to 10 cm long. This frog has an unusually loud call.

This frog lives in moist forests in lowlands, mountains, and on hills near streams. This frog tends to live in primary forest. It has been observed between 80 and 1500 meters above sea level.

Females lay eggs in foam nests attached to branches and grasses hanging over water. They create nests by beating a frothy secretion into foam with their hind legs. The tadpoles develop in paddy fields, holes full of water, ponds, and marshes.

It is considered Least Concern by the IUCN. What danger exists comes from habitat loss: People go into the forest to take things they need. People change the forest into small farms. Pollution, wildfires, and changes in hydrology can also harm this frog. In some places, people catch this frog to eat or sell as part of the international pet trade.

The frog's range includes protected parks.
