Rohanixalus marginis, the Malaysian bubble-nest frog, Malaccan bubble-nest tree frog, or marginal whipping frog, is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to Malaysia, where it has been found in Perlis State Park. Scientists predict it might also live in Thailand. [2] [3] [1]

Scientists observed this frog at night on low vegetation. They found the frogs near artificial bodies of water in a forest. This frog was observed 140 meters above sea level. Scientists believe this frog breeds through larval development, like other frogs in Rohanixalus. [1]
