      Genera of Leptodactylid Frogs in México

      BY JOHN D. LYNCH

      INTRODUCTION

      According to the most recent review of the Mexican amphibian fauna (Smith and Taylor, 1948), six genera of leptodactylid frogs occur in México. One other genus, Pleurodema, occurs in Lower Central America. Smith and Taylor recognized one species of Engystomops, 28 of Eleutherodactylus, three of Leptodactylus, eight of Microbatrachylus, 12 of Syrrhophus, and five of Tomodactylus. Subsequent to the publication of their checklist of the Mexican amphibia (1948), numerous taxonomic changes have been proposed. Many species of Eleutherodactylus have been added to the fauna, either through the extension of their recorded ranges into México from Guatemala or by the recognition of species unknown in 1948, whereas some nominal species have been synonymized. Microbatrachylus has been regarded as synonymous with Eleutherodactylus (Lynch, 1965); four species of Microbatrachylus
