AmphibiaWeb is an American non-profit website that provides information about amphibians. It is run by a group of universities working with the California Academy of Sciences : San Francisco State University, the University of California at Berkeley , University of Florida at Gainesville, and University of Texas at Austin .
The list below largely follows Darrel Frost's Amphibian Species of the World (ASW), Version 5.5 (31 January 2011). Another classification, which largely follows Frost, but deviates from it in part is the one of AmphibiaWeb , which is run by the California Academy of Sciences and several of universities.
O. sangay (Chasiluisa, Caminer, Varela-Jaramillo & Ron, 2020) [2] — Sangay casqued tree frog O. subtilis (Martins and Cardoso, 1987) — Brazilian slender-legged tree frog O. taurinus (Steindachner, 1862) — Manaus slender-legged tree frog
In addition, the AmphibiaWeb recognizes Amnirana longipes as a valid species, [2] whereas the Amphibian Species of the World, [1] following Jongsma and colleagues, [4] considers it synonym of Amnirana albolabris. Nevertheless, the "true" species number is likely to be substantially higher, with molecular data suggesting at least seven new ...
Sphenophryne is a genus of frogs in the family Microhylidae from New Guinea. [1] It reached its current composition in 2017 when Rivera and colleagues brought the genera Genyophryne, Liophryne, and Oxydactyla into synonymy of the then-monotypic Sphenophryne. [1] [2] However, the AmphibiaWeb continues to recognize these genera as valid. [3]
Afrixalus, commonly known as the banana frogs, spiny reed frogs, cat's eye reed frogs, or leaf-folding frogs, is a genus of frog in the family Hyperoliidae. [1] [2] They occur in the Subsaharan Africa. [1]

The status of Sphaerotheca swani is disputed, with Deepak and colleagues (2024) arguing for its recognition [3] (as is done by AmphibiaWeb [2]), whereas it is considered a synonym of Sphaerotheca breviceps by the Amphibian Species of the World.
