Species collected for human consumption are Hoplobatrachus rugulosus, Fejervarya limnocharis, Glyphoglossus molossus, pulchra]], Duttaphrynus melanostictus, and Pelophylax lateralis (with P. lateralis found only north of the Mekong river in localities such as Snuol district, Kratié province).[1] Kaloula mediolineata is also likely consumed in northern Cambodia. Glyphoglossus molossus is the species most vulnerable to harvesting activities, while wild populations of Hoplobatrachus rugulosus are also declining due to intensive harvesting.
