Odorrana leporipes is a species of frog in the Ranidae family that is endemic to Guangdong province of China. Its type locality is "Lung Tao Shan" (=Mount Longdao) in northern Guangdong.[2] It is only known from the original species description; the type series is presumed lost and the photographs of the holotype are now the iconotype. It is a relatively large species where females can attain a snout–vent length of 102 mm (4.0 in).[3] It is presumed to occur near to fast-flowing rivers and streams in montane tropical forest.[1]
