The Wushan horned toad (Xenophrys wushanensis) is a species of amphibian in the family Megophryidae. It is only known from its type locality in the Wu Mountains of Chongqing Municipality (formerly part of Sichuan province) and is thus endemic to China.[2] Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forests and rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.[1]
