[1] The last name, however, commonly refers to the Neotropical tree frogs which make up the subfamily Phyllomedusinae.

Consequently, the genus Hylarana, of which the common green frog is the type species, warrants re-establishment.

Hylarana seems to form a clade together with the similarly revalidated genera Pulchrana and Sylvirana, and presumably also Hydrophylax as well as some species presently placed in Pelophylax (e.g. Kokarit Frog, "P." lateralis).

[4] H. erythraea occurs in Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam.

The similar frogs from northeastern India and adjacent regions, formerly included here, are now separated as Hylarana tytleri.
