The ornate painted frog is a very small amphibian from the narrow-mouthed family. It lives in South Asia, has a body length of up to three centimeters, and a characteristic pattern on its back.
The ornate rice frog differs from close species by its complex dark pattern on the back and very small size. It is important for nature because it eats harmful insects and serves as food for snakes, birds, and other animals.
