(Boulenger, 1903)

Theloderma horridum is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is found in Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand.[1]

This frog lives in lowland rainforests, where it specializes in old-growth forests, where it has been observed between 100 and 800 meters above sea level. They have been observed in the leaf litter and sitting on tree trunks.[1]

The female frog lays eggs above the waterline in water-filled holes in trees. Tadpoles have been observed swimming in the water.[1]

The IUCN classifies this frog as least concern of extinction. What threat it faces comes from deforestation associated with logging and clearing.[1]

This frog's range includes several protected parks: Danum Conservation Area, Bukit Timah, Templer's Park Recreational Forest, Tanjung Biwah.[1]
