Phrynoidis is a small genus of true toads of the Bufonidae family.[1][2] They are found in Mainland Southeast Asia and the Greater Sundas. They are sometimes known as the rough toad[1] or the river toad.[3]
Phrynoidis was included in Bufo until 2006.[1] Their sister taxon is the genus Rentapia, which is formerly part of then Pedostibes genus.[3]
