Nyctibatrachidae is a small family of frogs found in the Western Ghats of India and in Sri Lanka.[1] Their common name is robust frogs.[2] Recognition of Nyctibatrachidae as a family is fairly recent. These frogs were previously placed in the broadly defined family Ranidae, which was more recently divided into three subfamilies: Lankanectinae, Nyctibatrachinae, and Astrobatrachinae.[3][4]
Genera
The family contains three genera in their own subfamilies:[2][1][4]
- Subfamily Astrobatrachinae
- Astrobatrachus Vijayakumar et al., 2019 (Western Ghats of southwestern India – 1 species)
- Subfamily Lankanectinae
- Lankanectes Dubois and Ohler, 2001 (Sri Lanka – 2 species)
- Subfamily Nyctibatrachinae
- Nyctibatrachus Boulenger, 1882 (Western Ghats of southwestern India – 28 species)
Description
Nyctibatrachus are robust-bodied frogs that range in size from small (snout–vent length <20 mm in Nyctibatrachus beddomii) to relatively large (up to 84 mm Nyctibatrachus karnatakaensis). They occur in near streams in hilly evergreen forests. Lankanectes is an aquatic species of slow-moving rivers in marshy areas.[5]
