The Sumatran sharp-nose tree frog (Leptomantis pseudacutirostris) is a frog. It lives in Indonesia in Kerinci Seblat National Park.[2][3] People have seen it 1000 meters above sea level.[1]

Scientists do not know much information about this frog. They think it lives in forests on hills and mountains. They think it lays eggs in clear, rocky streams.[1]

In 2017, scientists looked at this frog's DNA. They think it could be the same frog as Rhacophorus modestus.[1]
