Leptobrachella minima is a species of frog in the family Megophryidae. It occurs in northern Thailand, northern Laos, and northern–central Vietnam.[1][2]

Leptobrachella minima occurs in association with small to moderate streams in hilly evergreen forest at elevations of 131–1,390 m (430–4,560 ft) above sea level. It is locally threatened by habitat loss caused by deforestation driven by agricultural expansion. It occurs in many protected areas.[1]
