Megophrys

Megophrys is a genus of frogs in the family Megophryidae. They occur in the mainland Southeastern Asia, the islands of the Sunda Shelf, and the Philippines.[1] They commonly have elongated upper "eyebrows" and are thus known as Asian horned frogs.

"Asian horned frog" redirects here. This may also refer specifically to Megophrys montana.
