Identification
Note the horizontal pupil, lack of distinct parotoid glands, lack of distinct dorsolateral folds, enlarged toe tips, and fairly average tympanic membrane. - Craig Pemberton 00:55, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

Based strictly on location, it must belong to one of the following families: Hopefully that narrows it down a little. - Craig Pemberton 00:23, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Sooglossidae found in the Western Ghats
 * Bufonidae very cosmopolitan, found in all areas of India
 * Microhylidae, specifically Melanobatrachinae and Microhylinae
 * Micrixalidae
 * Ranixalidae
 * Petropedetidae, seems to live only South Africa, hard to tell from my source
 * Dicroglossidae redirects to Ranidae?
 * Rhacophoridae
 * Nyctibatrachidae redirects to Ranidae?
 * Ranidae


 * Not Sooglossidae since there is only one species present in India (Nasikabatrachus) which looks different. - Craig Pemberton 00:28, 29 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Of the toads, it must be one of these, although the toe pads indicate to my amateur eye that the individual is not a toad. - Craig Pemberton


 * Adenomus
 * Ansonia
 * Bufo
 * Duttaphrynus
 * Pseudepidalea no page so who knows where these are from
 * Ingerophrynus

Micrixalus saxicola looks superficially similar and is in the area. List_of_amphibians_of_India may help. - Craig Pemberton 01:23, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

Indirana looks like a promising group. Take a look at [this].
