'''''Raorchestes munnarensis''''' ('''Munnar bush frog''') is a species of [[frog]] in the family [[Rhacophoridae]] [[Endemism|endemic]] to [[Munnar]], [[Kerala]], along the Ghat road to [[Devikulam]] in the southern [[Western Ghats]], [[India]].<ref name=frost>{{cite web |url=http://research.amnh.org/vz/herpetology/amphibia/?action=names&taxon=Raorchestes+munnarensis |title=''Raorchestes munnarensis'' (Biju and Bossuyt, 2009) |author=Frost, Darrel R. |year=2013 |work=Amphibian Species of the World 5.6, an Online Reference |publisher=American Museum of Natural History |accessdate=31 July 2013}}</ref>

==Habitat==
It is known only from a small area (less than 20 km²) of secondary vegetation, adjoining the forest along the Ghat road. Specimens were found close to a tea plantation, but not inside the plantation. It breeds by direct development. Its natural [[habitat]] is heavily degraded former forest.

==Threats==
The species is [[threatened]] by anthropogenic [[habitat loss]].<ref name=IUCN/> including habitat clearance for tea and eucalyptus plantations, all the more concerning since there are no other areas of suitable habitat known in the surrounding region.

==Conservation Actions==
The range of the species is not within any protected area, and protection of the remaining habitat at the species' only known locality is an urgent priority.
