Duttaphrynus valhallae
Template:Short description Template:Italic title Template:Speciesbox
Duttaphrynus valhallae is a species of toad in the family Bufonidae. It is endemic to Weh Island, located northwest of Sumatra, Indonesia.[1][2] Known only from the holotype (more correctly, syntypes[2]), its ecology is unknown, but it is assumed to be a lowland forest species. Practically no forest habitat remains on Weh Island, and it is not known whether the species still persists there. Also its taxonomic validity is uncertain.[1]
Etymology
