Xenophrys brachykolos : ウィキペディア英語版 | Short-legged horned toad
The short-legged horned toad or Peak spadefoot toad (''Xenophrys brachykolos'') is a frog native to southern China and Vietnam. It was first discovered in the Victoria Peak (locally known as The Peak), Hong Kong. Many populations of Hong Kong are in the country parks, such as Lung Fu Shan Country Park. ==Taxonomy and distribution== Whether ''Xenophrys brachykolos'' is a valid species or a mere subspecies of ''Xenophrys minor'' has been questioned, but molecular genetic evidence now supports its species status. Recent research has also shown that the species has a wider distribution than assumed before.〔 At the time of the IUCN assessment in 2004, the species was hardly known outside Hong Kong and it was considered to be an endangered species.〔 Reflecting the distribution now known to be much wider, the conservation status of ''Xenophrys brachykolos'' is likely to change when the assessment is updated.
