''Gastrotheca'' is a genus of frogs (family Hemiphractidae) found in Central and South America. Most species occur in the American Cordillera from southern Costa Rica to northwestern Argentina. This genus makes up the bulk of marsupial frog diversity; formerly it was placed in the "Leptodactylidae" assemblage. Marsupial frogs are so-called because they possess a dorsal brood pouch. In some species the eggs are fertilized on the female's lower back, and are inserted in her pouch with the aid of the male's toes. The eggs remain in contact with the female's vascular tissue, which provides them oxygen. ''Gastrotheca guentheri'' (Guenther's Marsupial Frog) is the only known frog with true teeth in its lower jaw. ''Gastrotheca riobambae'' (Andean Marsupial Tree Frog) is kept as pet and is used in scientific experiments. ==Species== There are 68 recognized species: * ''Gastrotheca abdita'' Duellman, 1987 * ''Gastrotheca aguaruna'' Duellman, Barley, and Venegas, 2014 * ''Gastrotheca albolineata'' (Lutz and Lutz, 1939) * ''Gastrotheca andaquiensis'' Ruiz-Carranza and Hernández-Camacho, 1976 * ''Gastrotheca angustifrons'' (Boulenger, 1898) * ''Gastrotheca antomia'' Ruiz-Carranza, Ardila-Robayo, Lynch, and Restrepo-Toro, 1997 * ''Gastrotheca antoniiochoai'' (De la Riva and Chaparro, 2005) * ''Gastrotheca aratia'' Duellman, Barley, and Venegas, 2014 * ''Gastrotheca argenteovirens'' (Boettger, 1892) * ''Gastrotheca atympana'' Duellman, Lehr, Rodríguez, and von May, 2004 * ''Gastrotheca aureomaculata'' Cochran and Goin, 1970 * ''Gastrotheca bufona'' Cochran and Goin, 1970 * ''Gastrotheca carinaceps'' Duellman, Trueb, and Lehr, 2006 * ''Gastrotheca christiani'' Laurent, 1967 * ''Gastrotheca chrysosticta'' Laurent, 1976 * ''Gastrotheca cornuta'' (Boulenger, 1898) * ''Gastrotheca dendronastes'' Duellman, 1983 * ''Gastrotheca dunni'' Lutz, 1977 * ''Gastrotheca dysprosita'' Duellman, 2013 * ''Gastrotheca ernestoi'' Miranda-Ribeiro, 1920 (often included in ''G. microdiscus'') * ''Gastrotheca espeletia'' Duellman and Hillis, 1987 * ''Gastrotheca excubitor'' Duellman and Fritts, 1972 * ''Gastrotheca fissipes'' (Boulenger, 1888) * ''Gastrotheca flamma'' Juncá and Nunes, 2008 * ''Gastrotheca fulvorufa'' (Andersson, 1911) (often included in ''G. microdiscus'') * ''Gastrotheca galeata'' Trueb and Duellman, 1978 * ''Gastrotheca gracilis'' Laurent, 1969 * ''Gastrotheca griswoldi'' Shreve, 1941 * ''Gastrotheca guentheri'' (Boulenger, 1882) (Guenther's marsupial frog) * ''Gastrotheca helenae'' Dunn, 1944 * ''Gastrotheca lateonota'' Duellman and Trueb, 1988 * ''Gastrotheca lauzuricae'' De la Riva, 1992 * ''Gastrotheca litonedis'' Duellman and Hillis, 1987 * ''Gastrotheca lojana'' Parker, 1932 * ''Gastrotheca longipes'' (Boulenger, 1882) * ''Gastrotheca marsupiata'' (Duméril and Bibron, 1841) * ''Gastrotheca megacephala'' Izecksohn, Carvalho-e-Silva, and Peixoto, 2009 * ''Gastrotheca microdiscus'' (Andersson, 1910) * ''Gastrotheca monticola'' Barbour and Noble, 1920 * ''Gastrotheca nebulanastes'' Duellman, Catenazzi & Blackburn, 2011 * ''Gastrotheca nicefori'' Gaige, 1933 * ''Gastrotheca ochoai'' Duellman and Fritts, 1972 * ''Gastrotheca orophylax'' Duellman and Pyles, 1980 * ''Gastrotheca ossilaginis'' Duellman and Venegas, 2005 * ''Gastrotheca ovifera'' (Lichtenstein and Weinland, 1854) * ''Gastrotheca pacchamama'' Duellman, 1987 * ''Gastrotheca pachachacae'' Catenazzi and von May, 2011 * ''Gastrotheca peruana'' (Boulenger, 1900) * ''Gastrotheca phalarosa'' Duellman and Venegas, 2005 * ''Gastrotheca phelloderma'' Lehr and Catenazzi, 2011 * ''Gastrotheca piperata'' Duellman and Köhler, 2005 * ''Gastrotheca plumbea'' (Boulenger, 1882) (silver marsupial frog) * ''Gastrotheca prasina'' Teixeira et al., 2012 * ''Gastrotheca pseustes'' Duellman and Hillis, 1987 * ''Gastrotheca psychrophila'' Duellman, 1974 * ''Gastrotheca pulchra'' Caramaschi & Rodrigues, 2007 * ''Gastrotheca rebeccae'' Duellman and Trueb, 1988 * ''Gastrotheca recava'' Teixeira etal., 2012 * ''Gastrotheca riobambae'' (Fowler, 1913) (Andean marsupial tree frog) * ''Gastrotheca ruizi'' Duellman and Burrowes, 1986 * ''Gastrotheca splendens'' (Schmidt, 1857) * ''Gastrotheca stictopleura'' Duellman, Lehr, and Aguilar, 2001 * ''Gastrotheca testudinea'' (Jiménez de la Espada, 1870) * ''Gastrotheca trachyceps'' Duellman, 1987 * ''Gastrotheca walkeri'' Duellman, 1980 * ''Gastrotheca weinlandii'' (Steindachner, 1892) * ''Gastrotheca williamsoni'' Gaige, 1922 * ''Gastrotheca zeugocystis'' Duellman, Lehr, Rodríguez, and von May, 2004 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gastrotheca」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
