Blythophryne is distinguished from other bufonid genera by its small adult size. It has six presacral vertebrae, with no coccygeal expansions. It has an elongated pair of parotid glands and expanded discs at its digit tips. Phytotelmonous tadpoles lack oral denticles and have keratinised jaw sheaths.[1]
