Batrachylidae (lat.) - a family of tailless amphibians that live in South America . Previously considered as a subfamily Batrachylinae of the family Ceratophryidae ^[1] .

Lifestyle

They live in a wide variety of biotopes - from the steppes to tropical forests . The actual range , apparently, is determined by the restrictions on the reproductive process, imposed by the total annual rainfall in the north and minimum temperatures in the south. Often observed in settlements ^[2] .

Distribution

The range of the family covers the central and southern parts of Chile and neighboring Argentina ^[1] .
