Bufo pageoti, also known as Tonkin toad or Burma(n) toad (when referring to no-longer-recognized Bufo burmanus) is a species of toad in the family Bufonidae. It is found in southern China (Yunnan), north-east and western Myanmar, and northern Vietnam.[2] It is a medium-sized toad, with males measuring about 64 mm (2.5 in) and females about 67 mm (2.6 in) in length.[3] Bufo pageoti occurs in forested mountain areas, probably also in the surrounding farmland, at elevations of 1,900–2,500 m (6,200–8,200 ft) above sea level. It breeds in streams. It is a rare species threatened by habitat loss caused agricultural expansion. It occurs in some protected areas, including the Gaoligongshan National Nature Reserve in Yunnan.[1] References
