Quasipaa
''Quasipaa'' is a genus of frogs in the Dicroglossidae family. The genus has no established common name, but many individual species are referred to as ''spiny frogs''. They occur in East and Southeast Asia, from Thailand and Cambodia to southern and eastern China. ==Taxonomy== ''Quasipaa'' was first proposed as a subgenus of ''Paa'' (now considered to belong to ''Nanorana''). It was subsequently raised to the level of genus, and molecular phylogenetic analyses have corroborated the monophyly of ''Quasipaa''.〔 Many individual species were originally described in genus ''Rana''.〔 Even after splitting the very wide ''Rana'' into smaller taxons, frogs now in ''Quasipaa'' continued to belong to the true frog family (Ranidae), at times as subfamily Dicroglossinae, until Dicroglossinae was raised to the family level (i.e., Dicroglossidae). The taxonomy of Dicroglossidae is far from settled yet.
