The Perak bubble-nest frog, vermiculate bush frog, or vermiculated bush frog (Philautus vermiculatus) is a type of frog. It can be found in Malaysia and Thailand.[2][1] People have seen it between 500 and 1600 meters above sea level.[3]

Scientists believe this frog is not in danger of dying out because it lives in such a large place, but they believe people cutting down its forests may harm it.[3]
