Bain and Stuart, 2006, Hamadryad, 30: 151–156, discussed the range and provided a record for Laos as well as a record from near Sa Pa, Lao Cai Province, Vietnam. See map, description of geographic range and habitat, and conservation status (as Rana junlianensis) in Stuart, Hoffmann, Chanson, Cox, Berridge, Ramani, and Young, 2008, Threatened Amph. World: 505. Fei, Hu, Ye, and Huang, 2009, Fauna Sinica, Amph. 3: 1256–1261, provided an account, figures, and map for China, placed it in their Odorrana andersonii group.
