Dendrophryniscus
''Dendrophryniscus'' is a genus of true toads in the family Bufonidae, sometimes known as tree toads. They are endemic to the Atlantic Forest of Brazil. Taxonomy Until 2012, the genus ''Dendrophryniscus'' included the species now separated to the genus '' Amazophrynella''. This was based on molecular genetic evidence that indicated deep divergence between an Amazonian and an Atlantic Forest clade, the latter retaining the name ''Dendrophryniscus'' whereas the former was described as a new genus ''Amazonella'', later amended to ''Amazophrynella'' because of homonymy. Description The species of ''Dendrophryniscus'' are small to medium-sized toads measuring in snout–vent length. Their body form resembles those of the genus ''Atelopus''. The hind limbs are well developed. The parotoid glands are absent, as are external tympana. The skin is uniformly granulose to warty. Dorsal coloration is cryptic. With the exception of '' Dendrophryniscus leucomystax'', species of the genus ''D ...

Dendrophryniscus Proboscideus
''Dendrophryniscus proboscideus'' is a species of toad in the family Bufonidae. It is endemic to Southeastern Brazil and known from isolated records in fragments of Atlantic Forest in eastern Bahia and northeastern Minas Gerais states. Taxonomy This species has been through a series of taxonomic changes. It was originally named ''Phryniscus proboscideus'', and then ''Rhamphophryne proboscidea''. A merge of the genus ''Rhamphophryne'' into ''Rhinella'' briefly placed this species into junior homonymy with a different species, ''Rhinella proboscidea''. To resolve this, it was renamed ''Rhinella boulengeri'' in 2007. A 2012 analysis moved the species into the genus ''Dendrophryniscus'' and renamed it ''Dendrophryniscus proboscideus''. Description ''Dendrophryniscus proboscideus'' are relatively large among the ''Dendrophryniscus'', measuring in snout–vent length. The body is slender and warty. The snout is protruding. The males have nuptial pads. Habitat and conservation ''D ...
