The '''Chenggong fire belly newt''' ('''''Cynops chenggongensis''''') is a species of [[newt]]s of [[China]].

The [[genus]] ''[[Cynops]]'' is due for a split; the Chinese [[species]] will be one genus and the Japanese species another. ''Cynops chenggongenis'' is at the centre of a debate about the validity of ''[[Chuxiong Fire-Bellied Newt|C. cyanurus]]'' and ''C. chenggongensis''. Most of the captive animals labelled ''C. cyanurus'' could be ''C. chenggongensis''. Further analysis of the genus is needed to clarify the situation.
