Raorchestes hassanensis, the Hassan bush frog or Dutta's bubble-nest frog, is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to India, including the Western Ghats.[1][2]

Scientists once believed this population to be part of Raorchestes flaviventris but a reassessment was published in 2015.[2][3]
