Megophryidae are a large family of order anura (commonly known as frogs and toads). It encompasses approximately 130 species of frog, divided between eleven genera. They are notable for their camouflage, especially those who live in forests - often looking like dead leaves. The larvae can be found in a variety of waters - ponds and streams especially. Their tongue is noticeably paddle shaped.
