Amnihyla pratti, commonly known as Pratt's tree frog, is a species of frog in the subfamily Pelodryadinae. It is endemic to the Vogelkopf Peninsula, West Papua, Indonesia, where the type series was collected.[2] There are no confirmed records of this species after it was first recorded, so very little information exists on it.[1]

Amnihyla pratti is named after Antwerp Edgar Pratt, an explorer who collected the type series.[3][4]
