Xenophrys aceras, commonly known as the Perak horned toad, Perak spadefoot toad or Malayan horned frog, is a species of frog in the family Megophryidae found in Peninsular Malaysia and Thailand, and possibly in Indonesia. Its common name refers to its type locality, Bukit Besar in Perak state, Malaysia. Male Xenophrys aceras grow to snout-vent length of 48€“57 mm (1.9€“2.2 in) and females to 67€“86 mm (2.6€“3.4 in). They have smooth back with scattered warts and low ridges and short dermal projections on top of the eyelids (the "horn"). The dorsal color is variable from grey, brown to bright orange; they usually have a triangular mark between the eyes. Ventral side is brown. Its natural habitats are tropical moist lowland forests and moist montane forests. Tadpoles develop in forest streams. While it is a widespread species and classified by IUCN as of "Least Concern", it is potentially threatened by habitat loss.  Leptodactylidae, family of frogs (order Anura), including more than 900 species, most of which are found in South and Central America. Leptodactylid frogs live in water, on land, or in trees. More than 300 species, most of them West Indian or Central American, are of the genus Eleutherodactylus, or robber frogs. The young of this genus hatch as small frogs, rather than as tadpoles. The greenhouse frog (E. planirostis), a small brown frog commonly found in gardens, is a Cuban frog introduced into the southern United States. Many species have a very restricted distribution, such as E. jasperi, which is found only in the cloud forests of Puerto Rico. The genus Leptodactylus, or nest-building frogs, includes frogs that have a wide variety of reproductive modes. Some species lay their eggs on land in a frothy mass, the young living in the foam until washed into a pool by rain. The South American bullfrogs are of this genus. These animals resemble true frogs (Rana) but lack webbing on the feet. Horned frogs (Ceratophrys) are frog-eating South American forms that typically have a projecting flap, or €œhorn,€ of skin above each eye. They have wide heads and mouths and range in length from about 2.5 cm (1 inch) in the small species to more than 15 cm (6 inches) in the Amazonian C. cornuta. Horned frogs may be aggressive when disturbed; some are capable of giving sharp bites. The numerous Australian frogs of the families Limnodynastidae and Myobatrachidae are considered by some authorities to belong to the Leptodactylidae.
