Wait...

...shouldn't their be at least passing mention of the fact that "Frog" is a derogatory reference to Frenchmen? 68.39.174.238 13:05, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Reproduction image

Why is there a photo of two toads mating on a page about frogs? There may not be an available photo of frogs mating, but it's still inaccurate. -Hobbesy3 12:10, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

Smallest species

I'm putting my comment here, as it concerns three species. The National Geographic article on the Monte Iberia Eleuth discovery in 1996 specifically stated that it was the second smallest amphibian at 3/8 in (9.5 mm) length. According to the article the smallest species was a Brazilian frog measuring 11/32 in (8.7 mm, this would be the Brazilian Gold Frog), but that E. iberia would be the smallest species on the Northern Hemisphere, with the previous record belonging to another Cuban species of 13/32 in (10.3 mm) length (the Yellow-Striped Pygmy Eleuth – Sminthillus limbatus is a synonym for this, right?). Over the years Guinness has fluctuated between B. didactylus and E. limbatus as the smallest amphibian with lengths of 10 mm and 8.5–12 mm respectively; I think they've even had the former credited as the smallest amphibian, while the latter was listed as the smallest frog in the same edition! Also, I don't remember Guinness ever acknowledging E. iberia at all. --Anshelm '77 18:36, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
