The Chapa frog or glandular-sided frog (Babina chapaensis) is a species of frog in the Ranidae family. It is found in Laos, Vietnam, and Thailand,[1] although records from Thailand may refer to Babina lini.[2]
Babina chapaensis is associated with pools and small streams. It is at least locally common, and it appears to tolerate some habitat modification. Considering these factors and the relatively broad distribution of B. chapaensis, IUCN does not consider it threatened.[1]
