Rohanixalus hansenae
The eastern bush frog, Hansen's bubble-nest frog, Chon Buri pigmy tree frog, Hansen's bushfrog, or Hansen's Asian tree frog (Rohanixalus vittatus) is a frog. Scientists are not sure where it lives. They believe it lives in China, Vietnam, Thailand, Bangladesh, and Myanmar. Scientists have seen it in exactly one place: Mount Shiwanda in Guanxi Province, 937 meters above sea level.[1][2][3]

The female frog stays near the eggs after she lays them. Scientists have seen female frogs jump on grasshoppers that come to eat the eggs.[2]
The tadpoles can hatch out of their eggs early if there is a flood. If there is a flood, eggs that do not hatch early die.[2]
