Paradise Toad
Vandijkophrynus robinsoni
The paradise toad (Vandijkophrynus robinsoni) is a species of toad in the family Bufonidae found in Richtersveld, Bushmanland and Namaqualand regions in western South Africa (Northern Cape and Western Cape provinces) and adjacent Namibia.
Paradise toad is sympatric with the closely related karoo toad (Vandijkophrynus gariepensis). It differs from karoo toad by its characteristic call and morphological traits such as poorly developed parotoid glands, weakly developed tarsal fold, small tympanum, relatively smooth skin, and large eyes.
