Platymantis

Platymantis is a genus of frogs in the family Ceratobatrachidae. They are commonly known as wrinkled ground frogs, ground frogs,[1][2] and forest frogs.
As currently defined, Platymantis is a large genus with up to as many as 60 species found mostly in the Philippines. However, it is known to be paraphyletic. Solving this problem will likely lead to a more narrowly defined Platymantis, possibly by transferring some species to a larger Ceratobatrachus (with Batrachylodes).[1]
Species
There are currently at least 30 extant species in this genus.[1] Brown, et al. (2015)[3] estimates that there may be a total of 50-60 species in Platymantis if all cryptic species were to be described.

In addition, there is an extinct species:
- Platymantis megabotoniviti, Giant Fiji ground frog[4]
Species moved to genus Cornufer
Brown, et al. (2015)[3] moved the Platymantis species of Oceania into the newly proposed genus Cornufer. Species in the Philippines remained in Platymantis.
