The **common Chinese tree frog**[1] (***Hyla chinensis***), also known under common names **common Chinese treetoad** and **Chinese tree toad**, is a species of [frog](/source/Frog) in the family [Hylidae](/source/Hylidae) found in southeastern and eastern China and in Taiwan. There is also one record from Vietnam but it is uncertain whether it really represents this species or *[Hyla annectans](/source/Hyla_annectans)*.[1]

*H. chinensis* is a small frog, 25–33 mm (0.98–1.30 in) in [snout–vent length](/source/Snout%E2%80%93vent_length), inhabiting trees and shrubs in forests, but also living in agricultural landscapes (cultivated rice fields, ponds, and corn bushes).[2]

The [International Union for Conservation of Nature](/source/International_Union_for_Conservation_of_Nature) (IUCN) has classified *H. chinensis* as of "[least concern](/source/Least_concern)", but it can suffer from [habitat loss](/source/Habitat_loss).[3]
