The common Chinese tree frog or Chinese tree toad (Hyla chinensis) is a tree frog from China.  People have seen it in the middle of China and in parts of Taiwan and Vietnam.  It lives between 200 and 1000 meters above sea level.

The adult frog is 25 to 33 cm long from nose to rear end.  The female frogs are larger than the male frogs.  This frog has a wide head.  This frog is dark green on the back with a yellow belly and a brown mouth.  It has a black stripe near each eye and black spots on its sides.  Adult frogs sit in trees, smaller plants, and rice fields, sometimes in groups.

Scientists say this frog is related to Hyla arborea.
