Confused with Rana andersoni previous to its description. In the Odorrana (Odorrana) andersonii group of Fei, Ye, Huang, Jiang, and Xie, 2005, Illust. Key Chinese Amph.: 126. Nguyen, Ho, and Nguyen, 2005, Checklist Amph. Rept. Vietnam: 28, provided specific localities for Vietnam (as Odorrana hmongorum). See discussion by Ohler, 2007, Alytes, 25: 55-74. See map, description of geographic range and habitat, and conservation status (as Rana jingdongensis) in Stuart, Hoffmann, Chanson, Cox, Berridge, Ramani, and Young, 2008, Threatened Amph. World: 505. Fei, Hu, Ye, and Huang, 2009, Fauna Sinica, Amph. 3: 1261-1266, provided an account, figures, and map for China, placed it in their Odorrana andersonii group. Fei, Ye, and Jiang, 2010, Colored Atlas of Chinese Amph.: 334, provided a brief account including photographs.
