I don't know the Latin name, but, the largest frog in the world is "The Goliath Frog", of South America.... the sucker is HUGE!!.... Stretched out, probably about 24" long from head to toe!.... Them's some good eats!.... lol

This is just something floating around in my head... and I may be WAY off here, but I'm too lazy to verify it at the moment...

I thought the "biggest frog" was a situation similar to "biggest snake" where length is held by one species, weight by another.

And I had thought... THOUGHT... or at least my brain, which is often mistaken is telling me... that the weight category was held by Pixies...

The Goliath frog (Conraua goliath) comes from Camaroon West Africa. They have a body length of 30cm and weigh 3.3 kilos.

by the way, stretched out, they get over 3 ft., and are considered the single hardest frog to catch by hand

I agree with you. In spite of the fact that it's enormous, it is very nice

I got some stamps from the post office the other day and the common motif was the largest.. in the world, It had flowers and other animals and stuff. Of course I got the one with the largest frog in the world. It had the African Bullfrog on it and it kind of made me angry. Being a frog lover I know the largest frog is the Goliath and it just seemed ridicilous that the US post office is too stoopid (LOL) to have correct facts on their stamps. There is a killer video on U Tube (Is that what it's called?) Search google goliath frog video it's really cool!!
