Amolops monticola is a species of frog in the family Ranidae, the "true frogs". It is found in the Northeast India, eastern Nepal,[2] and western China (Tibet, Yunnan[3]), although there is some uncertainty regarding the Chinese records.[2][4] It probably also occurs in the intervening Bhutan.[2] Common names mountain sucker frog, mountain stream frog, mountain torrent frog, and mountain cascade frog have been coined for it.[2]
