Nidirana lini is a species of frog in the family Ranidae.

It is known with some certainty from southern Yunnan (China), Laos, Thailand, and north-western Vietnam.

It has been mixed with Nidirana adenopleura and Nidirana chapaensis; its exact distribution is unclear, in particular whether populations referred to as N. adenopleura in southern China to Zhejiang in the east belong to this species.

[2] It inhabits rice paddies, marshes, and ponds and the surrounding habitats, and it is locally common.

It is protected by Huanglianshan and Xishuangbanna Nabanhe Liuyu National Nature Reserves.
