Does anyone have pictures of baby edulis? I think a comparison needs to be documented so people can avoid buying the wrong froglet species.

Kevin, Yea, I remember this picture.
Are you suggesting that we add a 'not identified' photos section to the article?
Not necessarily. I just wanted to hear some opinions and start a discussion on this frog and others like it. This frog does not say Edulis to me in anyway. While I haven't seen any confirmed pictures of obbianus, I don't think this frog is it. I'm sure it's a possibility.
So other than that it must be some form of Adspersus, perhaps an in-described subspecies. I don't know. Let me know what y'all think!![]()

Hi ABF Fans:
I have sent a draft copy of the ABF ID guide to some folks in South Africa for review. I hope that we can get more photos and info.

Hi African Bullfrog Fans:
I am sorry that the ABF ID Guide is taking longer than expected. I was contacted last night by a scientist who really knows the genus quite well. He is willing to address some issues between P. adspersus and P. edulis with me. If you have a question or two, please PM me ASAP. Thanks!
Hey Terry, I saw this pop up and had to take notice.
My overall question is still finding a definitive specimen photo and description for each species of this genus. Or even a few (2-3) photos that are of each species.
We can then always have photos that can be classified as 'likely' to be that species, but of a variation.
I think there is still the question as to the photos of what is known as the dwarf African bullfrog, here in the US, possibly being some cross.
What are your thoughts? Who are you working with in Africa?(you can pm if you like)
