Megophrys

Megophrys is a genus of frogs in the family Megophryidae. They are endemic to Indonesia, where they are found on the islands of Java and Sumatra. They commonly have elongated upper "eyebrows" and are thus known as Indonesian horned toads. This group was thought to contain many more species and have a much wider distribution prior to recent taxonomic revisions.

==Taxonomy== The following species are recognised in the genus Megophrys: Megophrys acehensis Megophrys lancip Megophrys montana Megophrys parallela Megophrys selatanensis Megophrys formerly contained over a hundred species, but significant taxonomic revisions have led to the vast majority of these species being moved to other genera, such as Xenophrys, Boulenophrys, Atympanophrys and Pelobatrachus. However, there is a divide between studies over this, with most Indian-published studies preferring to classify all these taxa within Megophrys, while Chinese-published studies classify them in their own genera; the IUCN Red List follows the former, while Amphibian Species of the World and AmphibiaWeb follow the latter.
