Ansonia inthanon is a species of toad in the family Bufonidae. It is endemic to Thailand. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss for agriculture, use by medical research (although this is not a significant threat) and by the introduced American bullfrog. It is not rare in suitable habitat and may occur in Doi Inthanon National Park.
