Its common name is Lungtou frog or Anlung odorous frog. [2] Little is known about this species found in shaded hill streams 2-3m wide in forested areas. [1]

Male Odorrana anlungensis grow to a snout–vent length of 36 mm (1.4 in) and females to 64 mm (2.5 in). Tadpoles are up to 30 mm (1.2 in) in length. [3]
