Raorchestes resplendens, the resplendent shrubfrog, is a critically endangered species of frog belonging to the family Rhacophoridae endemic to the high altitude region around the south Indian peak of Anaimudi.

[3] It has extremely short limbs and numerous macroglands and was discovered from the Anamudi summit (2695 m asl) in the Western Ghats of Kerala, India and is known only from the Eravikulam National Park.

[3][6] The genus Raorchestes is named in honour of C. R. Narayan Rao in recognition of his contribution to Indian batrachology.

The specific epithet resplendens is a Latin term meaning 'bright coloured, glittering, resplendent' referring to the bright red or orange pigmentation.

[7] Raorchestes resplendens females burrow their eggs under the moss-covered forest floor, deep inside the base of bamboo clumps.
