Limnonectes ibanorum is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is endemic to Borneo. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and rivers. It is becoming rare due to habitat loss.
Limnonectes is a genus of fork-tongued frogs of about 75 known species, but new ones are still being described occasionally. They are collectively known as fanged frogs because they tend to have unusually large teeth, which are small or absent in other frogs.
Limnonectes arathooni is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is endemic to southwestern Sulawesi, Indonesia.
Limnonectes asperatus is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is endemic to Kalimantan, Borneo, in Indonesia.
Limnonectes dabanus is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is found in Cambodia and Vietnam. Its natural habitats are tropical moist lowland forests, rivers, and swamps. Its status is insufficiently known.
The Eastern Mindanao frog or Tagibo wart frog is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is endemic to the Philippines, where it occurs in the mountains of Mindanao.
Limnonectes finchi, Finch's wart frog, is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae endemic to Sabah, Malaysia, but it might well occur in adjacent Kalimantan. Its natural habitats are tropical moist lowland forests. The main potential threat to this species is habitat loss caused by conversion of forests to oil palm plantations. L. finchi shows some parental care: male frogs guard eggs and carry the tadpoles to small rain pools on the forest floor where the rest of larval development occurs.
Limnonectes ingeri is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is found in Borneo . Its natural habitats are tropical moist lowland forests, rivers, and swamps. It is probably seriously affected by habitat loss, and locally also by collection for food.
The Koh Chang frog or Koh Chang wart frog is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is found in east Thailand and southern Cambodia. Records from Laos and Vietnam represent other species.
The Luzon fanged frog is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is endemic to the Philippines.
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.
The giant Philippine frog, large swamp frog, or Mindanao fanged frog is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is endemic to the Philippines. Its natural habitats are tropical moist lowland forests, subtropical or tropical moist montane forests, rivers, intermittent rivers, freshwater marshes, and intermittent freshwater marshes. It is becoming rare due to habitat loss.

Limnonectes rhacoda is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is found in Indonesia and possibly Malaysia. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest, rivers, freshwater marshes, and intermittent freshwater marshes. It is becoming rare due to habitat loss.
Limnonectes shompenorum is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is found in Great Nicobar Island (India), its type locality, and in western Sumatra (Indonesia). It is similar to Limnonectes macrodon. The name refers to Shompen people, the indigenous people of the interior of Great Nicobar Island.
