Bufo microtympanum Boulenger, 1882 Duttaphrynus microtympanum (common names: southern hill toad,[1] small-eared toad) is a species of toad found in the Western Ghats of India, possibly wider.

[2] The head of this species has prominent bony ridges, viz.

a canthal, a preorbital, a supraorbital, a postorbital, and a short orbitotympanic; 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 (thus the common name).

The first finger extends beyond the second; the toes are about half webbed, with single subarticular tubercles; two moderate metatarsal tubercles are present, with no tarsal fold.

Upper surfaces have irregular, distinctly porous warts; the parotoids are prominent, elliptical, and twice or twice and a half as long as broad.
