The Gigante wrinkled ground frog or the Philippine forest frog (Platymantis insulatus) is a frog. It lives in the Philippines on South Gigante Island. It lives in forests where there is limestone in the ground.[2][3][1]
The adult frog is 38 to 42 mm long from nose to rear end.[3]
This frog is in danger of dying out because of global climate change and because humans change the places where it lives.[3] This species is a species of frog native to the Philippines and is the National amphibian of the Philippines[n 1].
