===Phylogeny=== A [[cladogram]] showing the relationships of the different [[Family (biology)|families]] of frogs in the clade Anura can be seen in the table below. This diagram, in the form of a [[Phylogenetic tree|tree]], shows how each frog family is related to other families, with each node representing a point of common ancestry.
