The Cat Ba shrub frog (Philautus catbaensis) is a frog. It lives in Vietnam. People have seen it on Cat Ba Island in Cat Ba National Park, which is from 0 to 300 meters above sea level.[2][1][3]

Scientists say this frog could be dead soon because it lives in such a small place and because people are still cutting down the forests where it lives to make farms.[3]
