Raorchestes parvulus (common names: Karin bubble-nest frog, tiny bubble-nest frog, dwarf bushfrog, cricket frog) is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is found from eastern Bangladesh east through Myanmar and Thailand to Cambodia, northern Vietnam, Laos, and Peninsular Malaysia. Its distribution might well extend into northeastern India and southern China. This species was first described by George Albert Boulenger based on seven specimens collected by Leonardo Fea from Karen Hills, Burma.
This may be a complex of more than one species. This is a small frog species. Males measure up to 23 mm (0.91 in) in snout-vent length, although modern sources give range 18–21 mm (0.71–0.83 in) for SVL. They have a rounded snout and hidden tympanum. The fingers and toes short and bear adhesive discs; fingers are free from webbing but toes are slightly webbed at their base. The back is greyish or brown. A dark bar or triangular blotch between the eyes and curved dark band the sides may be present. The hind limbs have some crossbars. Males have a large vocal sac.
Raorchestes parvulus is typically found in evergreen forest, but it can also be found in grassland... Wikipedia →

Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Karin Bubble-nest Frog sighting in Doi Inthanon National Park on a given day, based on 19 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 8th most-seen of the 17 amphibians we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 50%, and over a week to about 80%, if each day is a fresh chance.
October
In that month about 40% of wildlife watchers report a Karin Bubble-nest Frog in Doi Inthanon National Park on a given day, against under 5% in January, April and July–August, the lowest months.
Between 1 and 4 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Karin Bubble-nest Frog sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Doi Inthanon National Park, in our data
Doi Inthanon National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Karin Bubble-nest Frog sightings: about 20% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Karin Bubble-nest Frog is recorded against all the amphibians logged in Doi Inthanon National Park (19 verified sightings from 2019 to 2026), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
