Lithobates , commonly known as the bullfrogs , is a genus of true frogs , of the family Ranidae .[1] The name is derived from litho- (stone) and the Greek bates (βάτης , one that treads), meaning one that treads on rock, or rock climber.[2] [3] As presently defined, it includes many of eastern North America's most familiar aquatic frog species, including the American bullfrog , green frog , and the leopard frogs .
Systematics [ edit ]
The name was defined by Hillis and Wilcox (2005) for a subgenus of four Central and South American frogs within the genus Rana .[4] [5] The subgenus was subsequently expanded to seven species in Central and South America in a systematic revision of the genus Rana .[6] The name was previously used by Frost et al. as a separate genus of ranid frogs that included most of the North American frogs traditionally included in the genus Rana ,[7] including the American bullfrog and northern leopard frog . Frost used the name in this sense in the frog section of a North American common names list edited by Crother (2008).[8] This proposed change has since been rejected by others, such as Stuart (2008),[9] Pauly et al. (2009),[10] AmphibiaWeb,[11] and Yuan et al. (2016).[6] AmphibiaWeb, available at http://amphibiaweb.org/ , an online compendium of amphibian names, follows Yuan et al. (2016) in recognizing Lithobates as a subgenus.[6] On the other hand, Amphibian Species of the World 6.0, an online reference, uses Lithobates as a genus.[1] This definition is also followed by, e.g., the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN)[12] and the Society for the Study of Amphibians and Reptiles .[13]
The earliest known members of this genus are known from the Early Miocene of Florida , and appear to belong to the leopard frog species complex.[14]

Rana (Lithobates) maculata Brocchi, 1877 – highland frog
Rana (Lithobates) palmipes Spix, 1824 – Amazon River frog

Fossil species [ edit ]
The following fossil species are known, all assignable to the L. pipiens (leopard frog) complex:[14]
The species described in 1942 were previously placed in their own genus, Anchylorana .[14]
