Limnonectes medogensis (common names: Medog papilla-tongued frog, Medog eastern frog) is a species of frog in the Dicroglossidae family. It is found in Mêdog County, Tibet (China) and in Arunachal Pradesh, northeastern India.
This species is only known from four adult specimens. Males (the type series from the Mêdog County) measure 14–18 mm (0.55–0.71 in) in snout–vent length and females (from Arunachal Pradesh) 21 mm (0.83 in) in SVL. One of the females had three large eggs visible through its skin; this suggests that the species has direct development and does not depend on water bodies for reproduction. This reproductive mode is known from some related species.
Limnonectes medogensis has been found in both undisturbed and disturbed forest habitats.
