The broad-palmed frog (Litoria latopalmata) is a frog from eastern Australia. It lives in Queensland and New South Wales.^[2]^[3]

This frog likes to live in forests and woodlands and on flood plains near rivers. It also lives in billabongs and other permanent and semi-permanent bodies of water.^[2]

It lays eggs in groups underwater. The tadpoles take 50-90 days to become frogs.^[2]
