The protruded vent tree frog, thick anus tree frog, or white-lipped tree frog (Zhangixalus pachyproctus) is a frog. It lives in eastern China, Vietnam, and Thailand. Scientists think it might also live in Laos and Myanmar.[1][2]

The adult male frog is about 74.2-83.3 mm long from nose to rear end and the adult female frog is about 102.4 mm long. The frog has white stropes down the sides of its jaw, body, and legs.[3]
