Map

Can the map show a more restricted region ? Shyamal 03:37, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

Done. Shyamal 07:39, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

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I think the introduction is out-of-date.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. ^L_Wizard @ 20:12, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

Fixed i hope. Shyamal 04:55, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

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)

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)

Wrong Picture

The picture is of the Sooglossidae which lives only in the Seychelles Islands not the purple frog. It is a distant relative but either way the picture is wrong. There's one on BBC new that clearly shows its purple

No longer monotypic

There are now two species of purple frog/Nasikabatrachus with the 2017 discovery of Nasikabatrachus bhupathi. Most of the content here primarily refers to Nasikabatrachus sahyadrensis and not the Nasikabatrachus genus.

what do they eat and how?

i have skimmed over this entire thing but there appears to be no explanation of their diet, how does a creature with such a small mouth eat, and how?@ 204.145.232.66 (talk) 20:05, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
