[edit] Map
Can the map show a more restricted region ? Shyamal 03:37, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
- Done. Shyamal 07:39, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Contradiction
I think the introduction is out-of-date. There it claims that the frog forms its own family, but later on it is claimed that this was changed. Either the intro or the later bit needs to change. LWizard @ 20:12, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
- Fixed i hope. Shyamal 04:55, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Another purple frog from Suriname
In a news report, Purple frog among 24 new species found in Suriname, dated 4 June, 2007, a purple fluorescent frog has been discovered. I don't know if there is any taxonomy available for this species yet. Perhaps some mention should go into the current article nevertheless? __meco 22:26, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
- Does not look like a Sooglossidae or close relative. Except for the colour similarity, probably not relevant. Shyamal 03:21, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, the one from Suriname is actually a Bufonid (Adelotus), so there is no relation whatsoever. --liquidGhoul 05:22, 17 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Link to scholarly article
Not sure what info is in here, but may be helpful [1] Range distribution for sure. pschemp | talk 03:09, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

- Thanks, I updated the map. Unfortunately there was still a coordinate in the journal which had the longitude marked with minutes of 64 ! Found yet another ref here and User:Kalyanvarma has offered some nice pictures from here. Shyamal 16:05, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
