Ranoidea robinsonae is a frog from Papua New Guinea. Scientists saw it in Gulf Province but they think it lives in other places as well.

This frog is mostly green in color on the back with pale stripes. Three adult male frogs were 28.3-28.7 mm long from nose to rear end. Some of these frogs have dark spots.

Scientists say this frog is related to the dainty green tree frog.
