Scientists have discovered five new species of tiny horned frogs in India's eastern Himalayas, more than doubling the number of known species in the group. A team of scientists from University of Delhi and Harvard University made the discoveries after five years of fieldwork, identifying the frogs as members of the Jingophrys group.
