Bufo melanostictus : AmphibiaWeb - Bufo melanostictus

The species is Duttaphrynus melanostictus . Check out the toad care article to the left.

Kurt's using a new genus name for the same frog I linked (way to confuse people).

Here is some information on the captive care you might be interested in.

The frogs are now in the genus Duttaphrynus. I posted a picture of mine on Frog Forum at: http://www.frogforum.net/20449-post4.html
