Lysapsus is a genus of frogs in the family Hylidae found in South America east of the Andes. Their common name is harlequin frogs. [1]
Many frogs in Lysapsus have a paradoxical life cycle. They are most massive when they are older tadpoles and slightly smaller when they are adult frogs. [2]
There are four species: [1] [3]
- Lysapsus bolivianus (Gallardo, 1961)
- Lysapsus caraya (Gallardo, 1964)
- Lysapsus laevis (Parker, 1935)
- Lysapsus limellum (Cope, 1862)
The status of Lysapsus bolivianus is unclear; it might be a subspecies of Lysapsus limellum. [4]
