Rentapia hosii, also known as the Boulenger's Asian tree toad, common tree toad, tree toad, House's tree toad (sic), Malayan brown toad, brown tree toad,[2] or Asian yellow-spotted climbing toad,[3] is a species of toad in the family Bufonidae.[1][2] It is found in the Malay Peninsula (including extreme southern peninsular Thailand), Borneo (Indonesia, Brunei, and Malaysia), and Sumatra (Indonesia).[1][2]

Rentapia hosii is an arboreal toad found in forest and other dense vegetation along large lowland rivers, at elevations below 800 m (2,600 ft). It breeds in clear forest streams. After metamorphosis, juveniles disperse through the surrounding forest, gradually becoming arboreal.[1]
