Dermatonotus is a genus of frogs in the family Microhylidae.[2] It is monotypic, being represented by the single species, Dermatonotus muelleri, commonly known as Muller's termite frog.[3] It is found in Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, and Paraguay.[2]
Dermatonotus muelleri has a stout body, reaching about 40–50 mm (1.6–2.0 in) in snout–vent length. Females are larger than males. It lives below ground, feeding on termites. It is an explosive breeder.[4]
Dermatonotus muelleri is locally abundant, but it is threatened by habitat loss in parts of its range. It is sometimes collected for international pet trade.[1]
