Boulenger's bush frog, Boulenger's tree frog, warty frilled tree frog, small frill-limbed tree frog, or small rough-armed tree frog (Kurixalus verrucosus) is a frog. It lives in the Philippines, Myanmar, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Cambodia, and Vietnam.[2][3] People have seen it between 200 and 2000 meters above sea level.[1]

People have seen this frog on small, woody plants. Scientists are not sure whether this frog needs forests to live.[1]

Scientists believe this frog is not in danger of dying out because it lives in such a large place. However, loss of the forests where it lives for farms may hurt this frog.[1]
