Amphignathodontidae

"Marsupial frog" redirects here. For the species in the genus Gastrotheca, see Horned marsupial frog. For the mammal clade, see marsupials.

The marsupial frogs are a disputed family (Amphignathodontidae) in the order Anura.^[1] When treated as a separate family, it consists of two genera, Gastrotheca and Flectonotus.^[2] The frogs are native to Neotropical America (Central and South America). Under the dominant view, they are treated as part of the family of Hemiphractidae.^[1][3][4]
