Polypedates chlorophthalmus is a species of frog in the Rhacophoridae family. It is endemic to Borneo where it is only known from its type locality on Mount Murud in Sarawak.^[3]

This species is only known from the holotype collected from a granite boulder at the edge of a stream. The type locality was logged a few months after the collection. It is not known whether the species exists elsewhere.^[1] The holotype was a female, 62 mm (2.4 in) in snout–vent length.^[4]
