    1. Reviewed by Martin Pickersgill    Jan 25, 2008

    Action: changed name from "Breviceps adspersus" to "Breviceps verrucosus "

    Reviewer's comments:
         "This colour pattern is very common for B. verrucosus (which is in turn very common at Hogsback) but not found in B. adspersus. B. adspersus also has smoother skin."
