The frog family Dicroglossidae[1][2] occurs in tropical and subtropical regions of Asia and Africa, with most genera and species being found in Asia. The common name of the family is fork-tongued frogs.[1]
The Dicroglossidae were previously considered to be a subfamily in the family Ranidae, but their position as a family is now well established.[1][2][3]
Subfamilies and genera
The two subfamilies contain 231 species in 13–15 genera, depending on the source.[3][1]
Dicroglossinae Anderson, 1871 — 211 species in 12 genera:[4]
Allopaa Ohler and Dubois, 2006 (one species)
