The Larut Hills rice frog (Microhyla annectens) is a species of frog in the Microhylidae family. It is found in Peninsular Malaysia; records from Thailand and elsewhere probably refer to other species.[2] Its natural habitats are evergreen submontane and montane rainforests. It lives on the forest floor and in puddles and breeds in temporary pools. It is locally threatened by habitat loss.[1]
