Tsingymantis is a monotypic genus of frogs in the family Mantellidae. The sole species is Tsingymantis antitra. [2]
Tsingymantis antitra was described in by Glaw, Hoegg and Vences in 2006. [3] Its taxonomic placement within the family Mantellidae remains uncertain, because it is apparently a basal taxon. [3] [4]
This species is endemic to Ankarana Special Reserve, in northwestern Madagascar, [1] [4] where it lives among the limestone karst. [1]
The Mantellidae are an amphibian family of the order Anura, and are endemic to the Indian Ocean islands of Madagascar and Mayotte. At first glance, the diminutive, brightly-coloured mantellas appear visually similar to the Latin American poison dart frogs, such as Dendrobates, Oophaga and Phyllobates, among others.
Mantellinae is a subfamily of frogs in the family Mantellidae. These frogs are native to Madagascar and Mayotte. The species vary in size from under 25 mm to over 100 mm. The subfamily is most famous for the genus Mantella, which contains species that superficially resemble poison dart frogs of the tropical Americas, and have converged on similar aposematic colouration and toxins. As of 2 May 2016, there are 128 described species in this subfamily, but several more are described each year.
Aglyptodactylus is a genus of frogs in the family Mantellidae. These frogs, sometimes known as the Madagascar jumping frogs, are endemic to Madagascar. Systematic revisions of the groups were published in 1998 and 2015. Six species are currently recognized.
