Hylarana spinulosa, also known as fine-spined frog and spiny frog, is a species of true frog, family Ranidae. It is endemic to Hainan, southern China .[2] It occurs in tropical forests at elevations of 80–840 m (260–2,760 ft) above sea level. Breeding takes place in pools and slow-flowing streams.[1]
