Xenophrys Flavipunctata
''Xenophrys'' is a genus of amphibians in the family Megophryidae. They are found in southeastern Asia (including China and northeastern India) to Borneo. Their common name is strange-horned toads. Conservation Of the 36 ''Xenophrys'' species that the International Union for Conservation of Nature has evaluated, most are either "Data Deficient" or of "Least Concern". However, one species is considered " Critically Endangered" ('' Xenophrys damrei'') "Endangered" (''Xenophrys takensis''), one is " Vulnerable" (''Xenophrys auralensis''), and six are "Near Threatened". Taxonomy The genus was previously found to be strongly polyphyletic, and awaiting a better solution, they were synonymized in the genus ''Megophrys''. Following subsequent studies and reclassification, the genus has been revalidated. Species Presently, ''Amphibian Species of the World'' classifies the following 31 species in ''Xenophrys'': * '' Xenophrys aceras'' (Boulenger, 1903) — Perak horned toad * ''Xen ...

Near Threatened
A near-threatened species is a species which has been categorized as "Near Threatened" (NT) by the International Union for Conservation of Nature as that may be vulnerable to endangerment in the near future, but it does not currently qualify for the threatened status. The IUCN notes the importance of re-evaluating near-threatened taxon at appropriate intervals. The rationale used for near-threatened taxa usually includes the criteria of vulnerable which are plausible or nearly met, such as reduction in numbers or range. Near-threatened species evaluated from 2001 onwards may also be ones which are dependent on conservation efforts to prevent their becoming threatened, whereas before this conservation-dependent species were given a separate category ("Conservation Dependent"). Additionally, the 402 conservation-dependent taxa may also be considered near-threatened.
