Limnonectes paramacrodon (commonly known as the masked swamp frog) is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is found in Malay Peninsula (Malaysia, Singapore, and southernmost Thailand), Borneo (Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia), and Natuna Besar.[3][4] Its natural habitats are lowland swamp forest areas with small rivers and streams. It is becoming rare due to habitat loss.[1]
