Chalcorana is a genus of frogs in the family Ranidae, "true frogs".[1][2] They are found in Southeast Asia, from Thailand to Malay Peninsula and the Sunda Islands.[1]

Chalcorana was originally introduced as a subgenus of Rana. It was often included in the then-diverse genus Hylarana, until Oliver and colleagues revised the genus in 2015, delimiting Hylarana more narrowly and elevating Chalcorana to genus rank.[1][3]
