Leptomantis fasciatus is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae found in Malaysia, Indonesia, and Brunei. It has been observed as high as 200 meters above sea level..[2][3][4]

This frog is found in peat swamps in rainforests. Scientists do not believe it can tolerate disturbed habitats. It breeds through larval development.[4]

Scientists classify this frog as least concern of extinction because of its large range, which includes three protected parks: Gunung Mulu National Park, Kayan Mentarang National Park, and Ulu Temburong National Park.[4]
