Nanorana pleskei

Nanorana pleskei (common names: Songpan slow frog, Pleske's high altitude frog, plateau frog) is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. Until recently it has been only known from southwestern/central western China (Yunnan, Sichuan, Qinghai, southeastern Gansu) from elevations between 3300 - 4500 m, but there is now one record also from Bhutan. Notice, however, that earlier records outside China have turned out to be misidentifications.

Its natural habitats are subtropical high-altitude shrubland, grassland, rivers, swamps, intermittent freshwater marshes, and ponds. It is threatened by habitat loss.

Nanorana pleskei are relatively small frogs: males grow to a snout–vent length of about 32 mm and females to 36 mm. Tadpoles are up to about 41 mm in length.
