The orange-thighed frog (Ranoidea xanthomera) is a species of tree frog native to a small area of tropical northern Queensland, Australia. It has been observed between 100 and 1500 meters above sea level. It is a green frog with distinctly orange eyes, and is very similar in appearance to the red-eyed tree frog.
