Bufoides

Bufoides is a small genus of true toads, family Bufonidae. The genus is endemic to Northeast India, with one species known from the Garo and Khasi Hills.
Taxonomy and systematics.
"Bufoides" was erected in 1973 to accommodate "Ansonia meghalayana". It remained monotypic until 2016 when Chandramouli and Amarasinghe transferred "Pedostibes kempi" to "Bufoides", in their quest to achieve monophyletic "Pedostibes". The move was supported by the morphological similarity and geographic proximity of the two species, and rendered "Pedostibes" monotypic and restricted to the Western Ghats. However, it remains possible that the two "Bufoides" species are actually conspecific. The closest relatives of the genus remain unknown.
Description.
"Bufoides" are small toads; the maximum sizes of the two species are in snout–vent length. Supraorbital, preorbital, and postorbital ridges are present. The parotoid glands are short and oval. No externally visible tympanum is present. The tips of the digits have rounded, poorly dilated discs. Dorsal skin is granular. The fingers have basal webbing whereas the toes have complete webbing.
