The whole family is divided into eight genera with more than a hundred species, of which only about fifteen do not belong to the genus Bufo. The distribution of the family is well-nigh cosmo- politan, with the remarkable exception of Madagascar, Papuasia, and the small islands of the Pacific; Bufo has been wrongly said to inhabit the Sandwich Islands. The greatest number of species, chiefly Bufo, occur in the Neotropical region, the greatest number of genera in Central America, where Bufo is rare, and in Australia, where it is absent. A.
