Leptodactylus Colombiensis
''Leptodactylus'' is a genus of leptodactylid frogs. It includes the species commonly called ditch frogs or white-lipped frogs. It is very similar to ''Physalaemus'', a close relative, and indeed the 2005 described '' Leptodactylus lauramiriamae'' is in some aspects intermediate between them. Etymology The name means ‘slender finger’, from '' leptos'' (‘thin, delicate’) and the Greek ' (, ‘finger, toe’). Taxonomy The genus ''Leptodactylus'''s sister taxon In phylogenetics, a sister group or sister taxon, also called an adelphotaxon, comprises the closest relative(s) of another given unit in an evolutionary tree. Definition The expression is most easily illustrated by a cladogram: Taxon A and ... is the genus '' Hydrolaetare''. The genus is composed of 4 species groups. However, 3 species have not been assigned to a species group ('' L. hylodes'', ''L. lauramiriamae'', ''L. ochraceus''). Species There are 84 species in this genus: Footn ...

Leptodactylus Albilabris
''Leptodactylus albilabris'' is a species of frog in the family Leptodactylidae. Common names Its local name is ranita de labio blanco or sapito de labio blanco ("white-lipped froglet") and English name either Gunther's white-lipped frog or Hispaniolan ditch frog.

Description The white-lipped frog is a terrestrial (living on the ground) smooth-bodied frog (not warty like a toad) which passes through a tadpole stage. The tadpoles are brown colored, reaching about in length. ''L. albilabris'' can be recognized by its white upper lip (hence the name albilabris), webless fingers and toes, black streak between the eyes and the tip of the snout and between eye and shoulder. In general, adults grow to in snout-vent length, but like other Puerto Rican frogs the body size increases with elevation and adults of a snout-vent length greater than are not ...

Leptodactylus Fragilis
''Leptodactylus fragilis'', known under many common names such as the Mexican white-lipped frog, American white-lipped frog or simply white-lipped frog, is a species of Leptodactylidae, leptodactylid frog. Its distribution ranges from the Lower Rio Grande Valley (Texas), Rio Grande Valley of Texas in the United States south through Mexico and Central America to Colombia and Venezuela. It is often—wrongly—referred to as ''Leptodactylus labialis'' (Cope, 1878) (or ''Leptodactylus mystaceus labialis'' Shreve, 1957), which is a Synonym (taxonomy), junior synonym of ''Leptodactylus mystacinus''. Description Mexican white-lipped frogs are grey-brown in color with brown or black mottling. They have a distinctive white stripe along their upper lip which gives them their name. They grow to in length. Habitat Mexican white-lipped frog is a widespread and common species found in a range of habitats, in savanna, grassland, semi-arid lands, and open habitats in humid and dry, lowl ...
