Zhangixalus yaoshanensis is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to China, where its type locality is Dayao Mountain, Jinxiu County, Guangxi Province.
Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. This frog has been observed between 800 and 1500 meters above sea level. It usually lives near permanent bodies of water. [2] [3]
Scientists believe this frog breeds by larval development in water. [1]
The IUCN classifies this frog as near threatened because, while people entering the forests to collect wood was a serious problem in the early 2000s, the practice had declined significantly by the early 2020s. The frog's range includes a protected park: Dayaoshan Nature Reserve. [1]
