  "abstract": "<p>Brongersma&rsquo;s toad Barbarophryne brongersmai is known in the southern Moroccan Atlantic coast, in the Anti&ndash;Atlas, in the arid plain of Marrakech, and in several localities in North&ndash;western Algeria. However, its distribution in Morocco is far from clear and its range is not well known. We report a new record of B.&nbsp;brongersmai in Morocco, in the region of the central High Atlas. The habitat type in this region is different from areas where the species has been observed previously. It consists of temporary ponds, located between rock outcrops and filled by stormy rains or snow during the winter. We recommend conducting surveys to collect additional information about this toad in other Moroccan regions, such as in the Middle Atlas where suitable conditions for this species may exist.</p>\n\n<p>&nbsp;</p>",
