The phylogenetic relationships among rhacophorid frogs are under dispute. We use partial sequences of three mitochondrial (12S rRNA, 16S rRNA, and cytochrome b) and three nuclear protein-coding (Rag-1, rhodopsin exon 1, and tyrosinase exon 1) genes from 57 ingroup taxa and eight outgroup taxa to propose a hypothesis for phylogenetic relationships within Rhacophoridae. Our results support recognition of the genus Feihyla, and Chiromantis is the sister taxon to the clade formed by Feihyla, Polypedates and Rhacophorus. We place Aquixalus odontotarsus within Kurixalus, and the remaining species of Aquixalus and Philautus jinxiuensis into the genus Gracixalus. We give Philautus (Kirtixalus) the rank of genus and place Philautus menglaensis within it. The division of species groups among Chinese Rhacophorus needs revision, and a cryptic species is revealed within Rhacophorus nigropunctatus. Rhacophorus pingbianensis is considered a synonym of Rhacophorus omeimontis. The validity of Rhacophorus hui is confirmed by present molecular evidence.
树蛙科蛙类之间的系统发育关系存在争议。我们使用了来自57个类群和8个外类群的三个线粒体基因（12S rRNA、16S rRNA和细胞色素b）以及三个核蛋白编码基因（Rag-1、视紫红质外显子1和酪氨酸酶外显子1）的部分序列，来提出一个关于树蛙科内部系统发育关系的假说。我们的结果支持对费氏树蛙属的认可，斑腿树蛙属是由费氏树蛙属、泛树蛙属和树蛙属组成的进化枝的姐妹分类单元。我们将齿跗水树蛙归入姬蛙属，水树蛙属的其余物种和金秀小树蛙归入棱鼻树蛙属。我们将小树蛙（柯氏小树蛙）提升为属级，并将勐腊小树蛙归入该属。中国树蛙属内物种组的划分需要修订，并且在黑点树蛙中发现了一个隐存种。屏边树蛙被认为是峨眉树蛙的同物异名。目前的分子证据证实了胡氏树蛙的有效性。
