Oreolalax is a genus of frogs in the family Megophryidae.[1][2] The common name for the genus is toothed toads. Most member species are endemic to southwestern China, with at least two species in northern Vietnam (Oreolalax sterlingae), and the newly discovered Oreolalax adelphos in 2024, and possibly extending into adjacent Laos.[1][3][4] There is also a population in Arunachal Pradesh (Northeast India) that has not yet been assigned to a species,[1] although it may rather be assigned to the genus Scutiger.[3]
