Title

THE STUDY OF AMPHIBIAN FAUNA AND MORPHOLOGYCAL CHARECTERS OF FAMILY: RANIDAE (THE TRUE FROGS) IN INDIA

Abstract

Amphibian studies in India have traditionally focused on survey and taxonomy. Widely read Indian Journals that carried articles on amphibians during the past were the journal of the Bombay Natural History Society, current sciences, Science and culture and the periodicals of Zoological Survey of India. While most of these journals continue to dedicate some of their pages to reporting amphibian research in India. there are a number of popular magazines (horn bill, Sanctuary, Environ) that carry articles on amphibians from time to time. All these periodicals have together added considerably to our knowledge of amphibian distribution, taxonomy, food, breeding and metamorphosis, ecology (to a limited extent) and vocalization. The most important function of amphibians in nature has been grossly underestimated. While on the one hand they are active predators, on other hand they constitute a vital link in the food chain of life by serving as prey base for apex predators in the ecosystem. A total of 10 families are represented among Indian amphibians of which family Ranidae is most represented followed by Rana tigrina, Rana hexadactyla, Rana cyanophlycits and Rana limnacharis (Cricket frog). In general, studies on the amphibians are very important.
