Phrynopus
''Phrynopus'' is a genus of frogs of the family Strabomantidae. Their common name is Andes frogs. They are endemic to Peru and inhabit the upper humid montane forest and supra-treeline grassland in the Cordillera Oriental, with one record from the Peruvian Cordillera Occidental. Taxonomy The contents and phylogenetic position of ''Phrynopus'' have long been uncertain, and many species once included in this genus have now been moved to other genera (''Bryophryne'', '' Lynchius'', ''Isodactylus'' (now '' Hypodactylus''), ''Noblella'', '' Niceforonia'', and ''Psychrophrynella''). Hedges and colleagues placed it in 2008 in the family Strabomantidae, subfamily Strabomantinae. Description ''Phrynopus'' are small to medium-sized frogs, from snout–vent length in '' Phrynopus auriculatus'' to in '' Phrynopus kauneorum''. Head is narrower than the body. Differentiated tympanic membrane In the anatomy of humans and various other tetrapods, the eardrum, also called the tympanic ...

Phrynopus Kauneorum
''Phrynopus kauneorum'' is a species of frogs in the family Strabomantidae. It is endemic to the Andes of Peru and known from near its type locality in the Pachitea Province, as well as from the Cordillera de Carpish, both in the Huánuco Region. The specific name ''kauneorum'' honors Andreas, Meeta, and Rebekka Kaune from Germany. Description Only females and juveniles of this species are known. Adult females measure in snout–vent length—the maximum size is very large for the genus. The head is narrow and relatively short. The snout is short and rounded. Tympanum is absent, but the supratympanic fold is distinct. The fingers and toes have no webbing nor lateral fringes; the digital tips are slightly swollen. Skin of the dorsum is smooth. Dorsal coloration is glaucous with sepia blotches and stripes; one stripe runs from the beginning of the nose and extends across the upper eyelid to the inguinal region; another one runs dorsolaterally from behind the supratympanic fold ...
