Odorrana khalam is a species of frog in the family Ranidae. It is found in the mountains of southern Laos and central Vietnam. [1] [2] It is also likely to be found in northeastern Cambodia. [1]
Odorrana khalam occurs in montane evergreen forests at elevations of 647–2,298 m (2,123–7,539 ft) above sea level, being typically found on rocks and among herbaceous vegetation adjacent to still to slowly-flowing stream sections. It is probably threatened to some extent by habitat loss occurring within its range. It is known to occur in a number of protected areas. [1]
