Raorchestes chalazodes, also known as Chalazodes bubble-nest frog, white-spotted bush frog, or Günther's bush frog, is a critically endangered species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. Raorchestes chalazodes is a nocturnal and arboreal species found in the understorey of tropical moist evergreen forest and is endemic to the Western Ghats of India. The specific name chalazodes is composed of the Greek word χάλαζα (chalaza) meaning "lump" and -odes for the derived adjective, reflecting white granulation of the body. It has been observed between 1200 and 1600 meters above sea level.
The original holotype was collected in 1876 by Colonel Richard Henry Beddome in Travancore and given to Albert C. L. G. Günther. Before its rediscovery in 2011 in the Upper Kodayar Region in Tamil Nadu, the species was thought to be extinct. Raorchestes chalazodes make their oviposition sites in the internodes of the Ochlandra travancorica species of bamboo, where the adult male will take care of the egg clutch. Raorchestes chalazodes is also the only species in its genus that is reported to exhibit parental care. It is now considered vulnerable by IUCN.
