Nice frog, Diogo! I like P. edulis over adspersus
We are having the "great debate" over at the Pyxicephalis Differences thread on telling the difference between the species in the genus Pyxicephalus. For those of you who want to know, we come up with four characteristics that P. edulis has that is distinctive from adspersus:
- the white spot in the tympanum
- the distance between eye and tympanum is about the same as the diameter of the eye
- vertical bars on upper jaw
- an "interorbital" or "interocular" bar that goes across the top of the head connecting the two eyes

Thats a nice Dwarf, but i really dislike Dwarfs they are so tiny and they dont even grow they just getter fatter.
Thanks! I've been visiting that thread and here's the problem: I don't think mine is a P. edulis... I think it's some kind of not described dwarf or a hybrid...Nice frog, Diogo! I like P. edulis over adspersus

Well... you guys certainly know more about pyxies than I... so I'll trust youI think it looks just like the "true" Edulis that have come to light
