Boulenophrys brachykolos

Boulenophrys brachykolos, the short-legged horned toad or Peak spadefoot toad, is a frog native to southern China and Vietnam.

[4] Whether Boulenophrys brachykolos is a valid species or only subspecies of Megophrys minor has been questioned, but molecular genetic evidence now supports its species status.

Recent research has also shown that the species has a wider distribution than assumed before.

[1] Reflecting the distribution now known to be much wider, the conservation status of Boulenophrys brachykolos is likely to change when the assessment is updated.

Boulenophrys brachykolos are relatively small but robust frogs.
