See text Duttaphrynus, named after Sushil Kumar Dutta,[1] is a genus of true toads endemic to southwestern and southern China (including Hainan), Taiwan and throughout southern Asia from northern Pakistan and Nepal through India and Bangladesh[2] to Sri Lanka, Andaman Island, Sumatra, Java, Borneo and Bali.
The snout is short and blunt; the interorbital space is broader than the upper eyelid; the tympanum is very small, not half the diameter of eye, and generally indistinct.
The upper surface features are irregular and distinctly porous warts with prominent parotoids.
Males have a subgular vocal sac and are typically 3 in long.
[4] This genus was previously assigned to the Bufo melanostictus group.
