I think we need an online lesson !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The problem is that there are a bunch of species/subspecies yet to be described by science within the genus Pyxicephalus. We've been lumping anything that isn't a "Giant" into the Dwarf category, so what people view as dwarfs can be very variable. The classic Dwarf is the Lowveld African Bullfrog and that's what's in this photo.
