The Microhylidae, commonly known as narrow-mouthed frogs, are a geographically widespread family of frogs. The 683 species are in 57 genera and 11 subfamilies.
Barygenys is a genus of microhylid frogs. They are endemic to New Guinea and the adjacent Louisiade Archipelago. So far only known from Papua New Guinea, the range of the genus is expected to reach Papua province in the Indonesian part of New Guinea. Despite not being known from Papua, common name Papua frogs has been suggested for them.
Xenorhina is a genus of microhylid frogs. The genus is endemic to New Guinea. They are sometimes known as the snouted frogs or fanged frogs, the latter referring to the now-synonymized genus Xenobatrachus.
Austrochaperina is a genus of microhylid frogs found on New Guinea, New Britain and Australia.
Choerophryne is a genus of microhylid frogs, commonly known as Torricelli mountain frogs, endemic to New Guinea. These frogs are small, with the body length measured from snout to vent between 11 and 23 mm.
Copiula is a genus of microhylid frogs endemic to New Guinea. The common name Mehely frogs has been coined for them. They are leaf-litter inhabitants.
Platymantis is a genus of frogs in the family Ceratobatrachidae. They are commonly known as wrinkled ground frogs, ground frogs, and forest frogs.
Nyctimystes fluviatilis, also known as the Indonesian big-eyed tree frog, is a species of frog in the subfamily Pelodryadinae of the family Hylidae. It is endemic to New Guinea and is known from Idenburg River and Wapoga River in Papua province, Indonesia, and from the Torricelli Mountains in the East Sepik Province and Kavorabip in the Western Province, both in the western Papua New Guinea.
Nyctimystes kubori is a species of frog in the subfamily Pelodryadinae of the family Hylidae. It is endemic to Papua New Guinea and is widespread in the New Guinea Highlands between 141°E and 147°E and in the mountains of the Huon Peninsula. The specific name kubori refers to its type locality in the Kubor Mountains. Common name sandy big-eyed treefrog has been coined for this species.
Nyctimystes narinosus, the common big-eyed treefrog, is a species of frog in the subfamily Pelodryadinae of the family Hylidae. It is endemic to New Guinea and occurs in the Wahgi-Sepik Dividing Range and the Schrader Mountains, on both sides of the border between Papua (Indonesia) and Papua New Guinea. There is, however, some uncertainty about the western limit of this species. Despite its vernacular name, Nyctimystes narinosus is not a common species.
Nyctimystes persimilis, also known as the Milne big-eyed treefrog, is a species of frog in the subfamily Pelodryadinae of the family Hylidae. It is endemic to Papua New Guinea and known from Mount Dayman and Mount Simpson in the Owen Stanley Range.
Nyctimystes tyleri is a species of frog in the subfamily Pelodryadinae of the family Hylidae. It is endemic to Papua New Guinea and only known from its type locality, Gapaia Creek, between Garaina and Saureli, in the Morobe Province. The specific name honours Michael J. Tyler, an Australian herpetologist, "in recognition of his notable contributions to the systematics of Australo-papuan frogs." Common name Tyler's big-eyed treefrog has been coined for this species.
Papurana is a genus of frogs in the family Ranidae, "true frogs". They are known from Southeast Asia, New Guinea, and northern Australia. Papurana daemeli is the only ranid frog found in Australia.
Nyctimystes purpureolatus is a species of frog in the subfamily Pelodryadinae. It is endemic to New Guinea and is known from its type locality on the Tiri River, a small tributary of the Mamberamo River in West Papua, Indonesia, and from three locations in West Sepik Province, Papua New Guinea.
Cornufer is a genus of frogs in the family Ceratobatrachidae. It has been greatly expanded by Brown, et al. (2015) to include most Australasian frogs in the family Ceratobatrachidae. Species are found in Melanesia and Polynesia — in Palau, Fiji, New Guinea, and in the Admiralty, Bismarck, and Solomon Islands.
Ranoidea is a genus of frogs in the subfamily Pelodryadinae. They are found in Australia, New Guinea, and two nearby groups of islands: the Maluku Islands, and the Louisiade Archipelago. The circumscription of this taxon is still controversial.
Nyctimystes hunti is a species of tree frog in the subfamily Pelodryadinae. It is endemic to northern Papua New Guinea. Scientists have seen it only in Utai, Sanduan Province, but predict that also lives elsewhere on New Guinea.
Nyctimystes sauroni is a species of tree frog in the subfamily Pelodryadinae. It is endemic to Papua New Guinea. Scientists know it solely from the Kikori Integrate Conservation and Development Project area.
