Comment

Confused with Odorrana schmackeri prior to its naming, according to the original publication. Fei, Hu, Ye, and Huang, 2009, Fauna Sinica, Amph. 3: 1279–1282, provided an account, figures, and map, and placed it in their Odorrana (Odorrana) schmackeri group. Fei, Ye, and Jiang, 2010, Colored Atlas of Chinese Amph.: 340, provided a brief account including photographs of specimens and habitat. Fei, Ye, and Jiang, 2012, Colored Atlas Chinese Amph. Distr.: 386, provided an account, photographs, and a range map. Dufresnes and Litvinchuk, 2022, Zool. J. Linn. Soc., 195: 727, suggested on the basis of low sequence divergence that this taxon is conspecific with Odorrana hejiangensis
