Odorrana melasma (Stuart & Chan-ard, 2005)

Huia melasma is a species of frog in the Ranidae family. It is sometimes placed in the genus Odorrana, but actually seems to belong neither there nor in Huia, at least if the latter genus is defined in the strict sense.[3] It is found in Thailand.[1]

Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and rivers. Its status is insufficiently known.[1]
