Fejervarya is a genera of frogs in the family Dicroglossidae found in Asia. First proposed in 1915 by István József Bolkay, a Hungarian naturalist, the genus did not see widespread adoption at first. As late as the 1990s it was generally included in Rana, but more recent studies have confirmed its distinctness.
Fejervarya limnocharis is a species of frog found in South East Asia and parts of Indochina. It is known under many common names, including Boie's wart frog, rice field frog, and Asian grass frog. Molecular studies of the species complex suggest that there may be multiple species involved.
The crab-eating frog is a frog native to south-eastern Asia including Taiwan, China, the Philippines and more rarely as far west as Orissa in India. It has also been introduced to Guam, most likely from Taiwan. It inhabits mangrove swamps and marshes and is one of 144 known modern amphibians which can tolerate brief excursions into seawater, and is possibly the only extant marine amphibian.
Microhyla pulchra is a species of narrow-mouthed frog found in northeastern India, southern China, and Southeast Asia south to at least Thailand but possibly as far south as Malaysia and Singapore. It has also been introduced to Guam.
Minervarya andamanensis, commonly known as the Andaman frog, chestnut-brown frog, or Andaman wart frog is a species of frog only found in the Andaman Islands, India. It has been regarded as a synonym of Limnonectes limnocharis, but is now considered a valid species. A related, unnamed species exists in western Thailand.
Minervarya greenii is a species of frog that is endemic to the hills of central Sri Lanka. It lives in wetland habitats within montane tropical moist forests. It is threatened by habitat loss, pollution, desiccation of wetlands, forest fires as well as predation by introduced rainbow trout.
Fejervarya orissaensis is a species of frog that is endemic to Orissa state in eastern India. Similar frogs, however, have been found in southwestern Thailand, and it is possible that Fejervarya orissaensis exists as a single species or cryptic species complex all way from Orissa through Myanmar to Thailand.
Minervarya syhadrensis, commonly known as long-legged cricket frog, Syhadra frog, Bombay wart frog, and many others, is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae found in India, Bangladesh, and Nepal at low to moderate elevations. It is the type species of genus Minervarya. In view of its wide distribution and stable population trend, IUCN assessors listed it as Least Concern in 2009 and 2016.

It has in the past been often mixed with Fejervarya cancrivora; its distribution is not well known but includes the Philippines, Thailand, Hainan Island (China), and India. Its natural habitats are freshwater marshes and intermittent freshwater marshes.
Fejervarya multistriata is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is found in southern China and in Taiwan, but its range likely extends to Vietnam, Laos, Thailand, and Myanmar.

The Luzon wart frog is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is endemic to the Philippines where it occurs on all the major islands. It is an abundant and common species occurring in a range of man-made habitats, such as agricultural areas, ditches, artificial ponds and lakes. It uses nearly any body of available water for breeding.
The fanged river frog, Javan giant frog, Malaya wart frog, or stone creek frog is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae endemic to Sumatra and Java, Indonesia. Records from other regions are probably caused by misidentifying other species such as Limnonectes blythii as this species.
Fejervarya triora is a species of frogs belonging to the family Dicroglossidae. Its type locality is in Phu Chong-Na Yoi National Park, Ubon Ratchathani Province in the far east of Thailand. It is also known from Mukdahan National Park in Mukdahan Province, and also Pha Taem National Park, Ubon Ratchathani Province. So far, it is only known from eastern Thailand, although it is not unlikely that it occurs in adjacent Laos too. It has been found in a range of forested habitats.
Lunugamvehera National Park in Sri Lanka was declared in 1995, with the intention of protecting the catchment area of the Lunugamvehera reservoir and wildlife of the area. The national park is an important habitat for water birds and elephants. The catchment area is vital to maintain the water levels of the five tanks in the down stream of Kirindi Oya and wetland characteristics of Bundala National Park. This national park also serves as a corridor for elephants to migrate between Yala National Park and Udawalawe National Park. The national park is situated 261 km (162 mi) southwest from Colombo. After being closed because of the Sri Lankan civil war, the national park is now open to the general public.
