Confused with Rana andersonii previous to its description. Ye and Fei, 2001, Acta Zool.

In the Odorrana (Odorrana) andersonii group of Fei, Ye, Huang, Jiang, and Xie, 2005, Illust. Key Chinese Amph.: 126. See photograph, map, description of geographic range and habitat, and conservation status (as Rana hainanensis) in Stuart, Hoffmann, Chanson, Cox, Berridge, Ramani, and Young, 2008, Threatened Amph. World: 504. Fei, Hu, Ye, and Huang, 2009, Fauna Sinica, Amph. 3: 1252-1256, provided an account, figures, and map for China, placed it in their Odorrana andersonii group.
