Phrynobatrachus

The dwarf puddle frogs or African puddle frogs make up the Phrynobatrachus with over 70 species. These Afrotropical true frogs are placed in the subfamily Petropedetinae, which some authors consider a distinct family. This is occasionally split up further, particularly in older sources, with the present genus being placed in a family Phrynobatrachidae. [more]

At least 99 species and subspecies belong to the Genus Phrynobatrachus.
