Rhacophorus catamitus is a species of frogs in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to Sumatra, Indonesia, and occurs in the Barisan Mountains at elevations of 1,068–1,680 m (3,504–5,512 ft) above sea level.[2] Its natural habitats are tropical forests. Males call from low vegetation near streams. It is probably impacted by habitat loss.[1]
