The banded flying frog or banded tree frog (Leptomantis fasciatus) is a frog. It lives in Malaysia, Indonesia, and Brunei. People have seen it as high as 200 meters above sea level.[2][3][1]

This frog lives in peat swamps in rainforests forests. Scientists believe that this frog does not live in places that human beings have changed. The tadpoles swim in the swamp.[1]

Scientists believe this frog is not in danger of dying out because it lives in such a large place. The frog lives in three protected parks: Gunung Mulu National Park, Kayan Mentarang National Park, and Ulu Temberong National Park.[1]
