A molecular phylogenetic study by van der Meijden, et al. (2007) has estimated the family Microhylidae to be about 52 million years old.[1]

Genera

The following genera are recognised in the subfamily Microhylinae:[2]


gollark: Chemistry is an uncool science, so our nanobots ignored it by just disassembling unwanted molecules.
gollark: They did this, but only after self-replicating using some unwanted pixels as feedstock.
gollark: It *did* contain no nanobots, but obviously they moved around to enter your opening bracket and assemble μparantheses and APIONET nodes inside it.
gollark: Thus, none are safe from correct parentheticization.
gollark: Actually, that ) contained 1824718946187487124 GTech™ nanobots which construct μparantheses around nearby statements experiencing unbalanced brackets.
