The following is a '''list of amphibians of [[Northeast India]]'''. The presence of amphibian species in each of the seven Northeastern states is indicated by green checkmarks. Species endemic to Northeast India are labeled as ''[[endemic]]''. The list is based on Sen (2004), with additional records from [[Nagaland]] included from Ao, et al. (2003).

Due to its humid climate, [[Meghalaya]] has the most amphibian species diversity.
