The Garo Hills frog, Boulenger's Garo Hill frog, swift cascade frog, mawphlang frog or Daniel's frog ("Hylarana" garoensis) is a small frog from India. Scientists think it may also live in Nepal.^[2]^[3]

This frog is 32 mm long from nose to rear end. It is gray-brown on the black and almost white on its belly. It has a long head and pointed nose. Its front legs are longer than the front legs of most frogs this size. It has webbing on its hind feet but not its front feet. It has discs for climbing on its front feet.^[3]
