Odorrana morafkai is a species of frog in the Ranidae family that is found in Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam.[3] Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and rivers. Its status is insufficiently known.[1]
This frog is highly unusual because it turns from its daytime green color to brown at night.[4]
