	ADW: Ranidae: Information
		Species of the genus Rana are the only ranids found in the Americas or Australia; most of the family's diversity is in the old world.
		No characters unequivocally diagnose Ranidae, lending more strength to the position that this is a paraphyletic group.
		Within the Ranoidea, even this reduced Ranidae is analogous to the Leptodactylidae within the Bufonoidea: both families represent a diverse, paraphyletic group of non-treefrogs.

	Ranidae -- Encyclopædia Britannica
		Members of the group are referred to as the true frogs because of their generalized body form and life history.
		In the United States and parts of Canada the wood frog generally inhabits damp woodlands; in the north it frequents areas that, in spring, are supplied with water for breeding.
		The green frog is 5 to 10 cm (2 to 4 inches) long and green to brownish in colour.

	Frog - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It has no meaning in animal systematics, since many anuran families include both "frogs" and "toads".

		Frogs range in size from less than 50mm (2.0 in) to 300mm (11.8 in) in Conraua goliath, the Goliath frog from Cameroon, which is the largest known frog.
