Amnirana parkeriana, commonly known as Congolo frog, or Parker's white-lipped frog, is a species of frog in the family Ranidae. It is endemic to Angola. [1]
Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and swamps.
A tadpole is the larval stage in the life cycle of an amphibian. Most tadpoles are fully aquatic, though some species of amphibians have tadpoles that are terrestrial. Tadpoles have some features that may not be found in adult amphibians such as a lateral line, gills, and tails. As they undergo metamorphosis, the diet of tadpoles changes and they will start to breathe air.
Amnirana is a genus of frogs in the family Ranidae, "true frogs". The genus is primarily found in Sub-Saharan Africa, but one species occurs in parts of southern and southeastern Asia. Some of the African species are widespread but contain undescribed cryptic diversity. Most species have a white upper lip, and the genus is sometimes known as the white-lipped frogs.
Hyperolius zonatus is a species of frog in the family Hyperoliidae. It is found in Ivory Coast, Guinea, Sierra Leone, and possibly Liberia. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, swamps, and intermittent freshwater marshes. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Gunther's robber frog, Günther's robber frog, or Guerreran robber frog is a species of frog in the family Craugastoridae. It is endemic to the Sierra Madre del Sur in the Guerrero state, Mexico. Its natural habitats are pine, oak, and pine-oak forests with plenty of leaf-litter on the ground. It is a relatively common species but declining and threatened by habitat loss and disturbance.

Amnirana darlingi is a species of frogs in the family Ranidae. It is found in eastern Angola, the Caprivi Strip of Namibia, extreme northern Botswana, extreme southern Democratic Republic of the Congo, Zambia, eastern and northern Zimbabwe, and southern Malawi, west-central Mozambique.

It is found in Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Central African Republic, Republic of the Congo, Democratic Republic of the Congo, and northern Angola. Common names Andersson's Cameroon frog, Andersson's white-lipped frog, and jumping white-lipped frog have been proposed for it.
Amnirana occidentalis is a species of frog in the family Ranidae. It is found in Ivory Coast, Ghana, Guinea, Liberia, and possibly Nigeria.

Amolops chunganensis is a species of frog in the family Ranidae. Its type locality, Kuatun village in Wuyishan, Fujian. It is endemic to central, southern and eastern China where it has a wide but scattered distribution ; records from Vietnam probably refer to Amolops mengyangensis.
Amolops lifanensis is a species of frog in the family Ranidae that is endemic to central Sichuan, China. It is a common species within its small range, living in and along streams in forests. It is locally threatened by dam construction.
Amolops mantzorum, commonly known as the Sichuan torrent frog or Kangting sucker frog, is a species of frog in the family Ranidae. It is found in Gansu, Sichuan, and Yunnan Provinces of China. It has recently been reported also from Bhutan.
