The amphibian fauna of the mangrove areas of Odisha was found to be quite rich with 14 species belonging to 9 genera and 5 families of Anurans. An important aspect of the study is that 5 species were recorded for the first time from the mangrove areas of Odisha. These included Duttaphrynus stomaticus (Bufonidae), Fejervarya moodiei, Hoplobatrachus crassus and Sphaerotheca rolandae (Dicroglossidae) and Hylarana tytleri (Ranidae). The Taylor's crab-eating frog (Fejervarya moodiei) was the first record of the species from India.Downloads
