Zhangixalus hungfuensis is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is found in southern China and northern Vietnam. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, subtropical or tropical moist montane forests, subtropical or tropical moist shrubland, rivers, and freshwater marshes.[2][3][4]
This frog has been observed exclusively in Hongfoshan, between 800 and 1500 meters above sea level. The frogs breed in stream-fed pools, through larval development.[4]
The IUCN classifies this frog as endangered because of its small range, which does not include any threat-defined locations. About 40% of this range is subject to earthquakes, which can cause landslides, which kill frogs and alter habitat. Infrastructure development can also pose a threat to this frog.[4]
