Frog or toad?
edit- Atelopus limosus, the limosa harlequin frog (Spanish: sapo limoso) is an endangered species of toad ...
Reading this, one wonders why an animal called the "limosa harlequin frog" should in fact be a species of toad. I assumed at first that its common name "frog" must be technically incorrect, and that technically, or scientifically, it must really be a toad, but the article toad says that there is actually no scientific distinction between the two. I wonder whether it is necessary, therefore, to call it a toad? 109.145.3.124 (talk) 20:25, 5 January 2018 (UTC)
