Nanorana blanfordii (common names: Blanford's paa frog, Blanford's frog, Blanford's spiny frog) is a species of frog in the Dicroglossidae family. It is found in Tibet (China), northeastern India, and eastern Nepal, and possibly Bhutan. Its natural habitats are small streams and the surrounding grasslands and temperate forests.

Nanorana blanfordii are medium-sized frogs, though relatively small among their closest relatives: males grow to a snout–vent length of about 43 mm (1.7 in) and females to 49 mm (1.9 in). Tadpoles are up to 52 mm (2.0 in) in length.
