A small amphibian species endemic to northeastern Asia, specifically found in regions of Russia and potentially parts of China and Korea. Part of the diverse Ranidae family of true frogs.
Cool temperate forest and mountain stream environments in East Asian regions, typically at elevations between 500-1,500 meters above sea level. Prefers humid, moist microhabitats with dense vegetation and proximity to water sources.
Critical component of forest ecosystem food webs, serving as both predator of small invertebrates and prey for larger vertebrates. Contributes to controlling insect populations and supporting biodiversity in montane ecosystems.
