Paa taihangnicus Chen & Jiang, 2002 Paa taihangnica Chen & Jiang, 2002 Chaparana taihangnicus (Chen & Jiang, 2002) Nanorana taihangnica, or the Taihangshan swelled-vented frog, is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae.
Its type locality is on the Taihang Mountains, within the Jiyuan city in Henan province of central China.
[1][3] It is now also reported from Qin, Funiu and Zhongtiao Mountains (these can all be interpreted as being part of the greater Qin Mountains Region[4]), with its distribution also including Gansu and Shaanxi provinces.
There is substantial differentiation among lineages from different mountains.
[3][4] Little is known about this relatively recently described species inhabiting rivers and surrounding forests.
