Polypedates impresus is a species of frogs in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to Yunnan, China, where it has been recorded in Pu'er. It is known from Yunnan (Puer, Lüchun, and Xishuangbanna) and Guangxi (Jingxi County).[1] People have seen it between 600 and 1000 meters above sea level.[2]

This frog lives in thick hill grass in riparian habitats.[2]
