Dicroglossinae | |
The Dicroglossidae family of frogs[1][2] occurs in tropical and subtropical regions of Asia and Africa, with most genera and species being found in Asia. The common name of the family is fork-tongued frogs.[1]
The Dicroglossidae were previously considered to be a subfamily in the family Ranidae, but their position as a family is now well established.[1][2][3]

The two subfamilies contain more than 186 species in 13–15 genera, depending on the source.[3][1]

Phylogeny
The following phylogeny of Dicroglossidae is from Pyron & Wiens (2011).[6] Dicroglossidae is a sister group of Ranixalidae.[6].mw-parser-output table.clade{border-spacing:0;margin:0;font-size:100%;line-height:100%;border-collapse:separate;width:auto}.mw-parser-output table.clade table.clade{width:100%}.mw-parser-output table.clade td{border:0;padding:0;vertical-align:middle;text-align:center}.mw-parser-output table.clade td.clade-label{width:0.8em;border:0;padding:0 0.2em;vertical-align:bottom;text-align:center}.mw-parser-output table.clade td.clade-slabel{border:0;padding:0 0.2em;vertical-align:top;text-align:center}.mw-parser-output table.clade td.clade-bar{vertical-align:middle;text-align:left;padding:0 0.5em}.mw-parser-output table.clade td.clade-leaf{border:0;padding:0;text-align:left;vertical-align:middle}.mw-parser-output table.clade td.clade-leafR{border:0;padding:0;text-align:right}
