I tkink the cornuta is related to Cranwell's horned frog (Ceratophrys cranwelli), also called the
Chacoan horned frog, is a terrestrial frog endemic to the dry Gran Chaco region of Argentina. Like most
members of the genus Ceratophrys, they are often considered Pacman frogs because of their uncanny
resemblance to the popular video game character of the same name. Most adult species range from 8-13
cm long (3-5 in) and can weigh up to 0.5 kg (1 lb). The backs of these frogs typically have dark green
and brown coloration, although albino variants with orange and yellow backs also exist. The dark color
scheme aids in camouflaging the animal as it burrows and waits for its prey. Though generally inactive, they
are aggressive eaters, and are capable of leaping for several body lengths in order to capture prey.
