BUFONIDAE

The Asian Black-spotted Toad, Duttaphrynus melanostictus ( Schneider 1799) , is indigenous to southern Asia including central, southern and southwestern China, Taiwan, southward into India, Sri Lanka, and southeast through to Borneo and sections of Indonesia ( Zhao & Adler 1993; Inger 1999; Zhao 1999). This species has become established in Sulawesi, western Papua and the Maldives, and it has been introduced to Australia and New Zealand ( Kraus 2009). On 26 August 2010, a D. melanostictus was intercepted (stage 1) by USDA from inside a shipping container of Money Trees ( Pachira aquatica ) at 6302 NW 36 th Street, Miami, Miami-Dade County (25.80762 o N, - 80.29922 o W). This cargo originated from a port at Zhanjiang, Guangdong, China, on 25 July 2010; however, the location of the tree farm is not known. This D. melanostictus (UF 159699; 65 mm SVL, 32.4 g, MorphoBank M88447 ; Fig. 11) was subsequently transferred to Zoo Miami before being deposited in the FLMNH. This is the first known voucher for this species in Florida.
