Limnonectes namiyei is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae.
It is endemic to Okinawa Island, Japan.
[2] It is named after Motoyoshi Namiye, a Japanese naturalist and herpetologist.
[4] Its natural habitats are upstream regions in primary broad-leaved evergreen forest.
It used to be a common frog but has greatly declined because of habitat loss (deforestation, road and dam construction) and predation by invasive mongooses.
