About the Danowaria Callulops Frog
Asterophrys eurydactyla is a species of frog in the family Microhylidae. It is endemic to New Guinea and known from the Onin Peninsula in Western New Guinea (Indonesia), and from the Star Mountains in the Western Province in Papua New Guinea, close to the border with Western New Guinea; there are some doubts whether this easternmost record is conspecific with A. eurydactyla. Common name Danowaria callulops frog has been proposed for this species.
