    Hi ABF Fans:

    I really love this debate we are having. I am currently communicating with Dr. Charles Parry, who spent many years researching the genus Pyxicephalus. With your permission, Roman, I would like to email pictures of Waaq to him for his opinion. Maybe we can get some good advice on identifying specific species.

    Terry has had a project going with this since the summer.

    The only clear frog is the P.A. from South Africa.

    OK, I will send an email out tonight with some photos. I know this has taken a while, but I wanted to make sure all the facts are in before finalizing the guide.

    All the great things in life take time. Even some of the famed 97 Bordeaux are undrinkable without the proper time to mellow into awesomeness. Thank you for taking the time to sift thru and, gather all the information needed for an endeavor this confusing and complicated. This work, your work, will be instrumental in how we understand our fat little buddies in the future.

    I don't know how it's been for your guys but for me, It seems the more I learn and research these frogs, the more confused I become as time goes by.

    My idea was and is that these frogs are an inter-grade between the two. Maybe not F1 or F2 hybrids, but generation after generation for who knows how long of interbreeding. There's a subspecies of Phrynosoma that was formed through long term integration.
    Just throwing out my theory.
