Pearson's green tree frog (Ranoidea pearsoniana), also known as the cascade tree frog, is a species of tree frog inhabiting rainforest creeks from north of Lismore, New South Wales, to Kenilworth, Queensland, with a disjunct population at Kroombit Tops Queensland, Australia.
Morphological differences have not been fully studied yet, but visible physical differences between frogs from Barrington Tops and Dorrigo, New South Wales, in comparison to frogs from south-eastern Queensland and northern New South Wales are discussed in a key on the leaf green tree frog page.
A light brown/yellow stripe starts at the tip of the snout, across the nostril, eye, and tympanum, and then widens and dissipates over the shoulder.
The tadpoles of the R. phyllochroa complex (R. phyllochroa, southern leaf green tree frog, R. barringtonensis and R. pearsoniana) are very similar in appearance and are difficult to tell apart; range is the best method for distinguishing tadpoles.
This species inhabits flowing creeks in rainforests and wet sclerophyll forests in highland and coastal areas.
