Leptobrachium montanum is a species of frog from the family Megophryidae. It is endemic to Borneo and is, as currently defined, found in Kalimantan , Sabah and Sarawak , and Labi, Belait . However, the nominal ''Leptobrachium montanum'' is a composed of more than one lineage. Available information mostly refers to this composite rather than the "true" ''Leptobrachium montanum''. Common names montane large-eyed litter frog, mountain spadefoot toad, and mountain litter frog have been coined for it.
