Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Speciesbox

Barbarophryne is a genus of toads in the family Bufonidae. It is monotypic, containing only the species Brongersma's toad (Barbarophryne brongersmai), also known as Tiznit toad. It is found in Algeria and Morocco.[1] It is a small toad, up to about Шаблон:Cvt in snout–to–vent length.[2]

The Brongersma's toad was initially placed in the genus Bufo and then Pseudepidalea (a synonym of Bufotes), but in 2013 it was moved to its own genus Barbarophryne.[1]

The natural habitats of Barbarophryne brongersmai are subtropical or tropical dry shrubland, Mediterranean-type shrubby vegetation, intermittent rivers, intermittent freshwater marshes, rocky areas, hot deserts, arable land, ponds, and canals and ditches. Its habitat is primarily semi-arid sparsely vegetated areas, and it is also thought to be adapted to some disturbed areas. It is threatened by habitat loss.
