Solution

The correct option is A Pipa, Suriname toad
The common Suriname toad (Pipa pipa) is a species of frogs in the Pipidae family. They are found in South and central America. In Portuguese, it is known as sapo pipa due to its shape, as "pipa" means kite. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, subtropical or tropical swamps, and freshwater marshes. It is threatened by habitat loss. The common suriname toad is similar in appearance to a mottled brown leaf and is almost completely flat. Its feet are broadly webbed with the front toes having small, star-like appendages.
Therefore, the correct answer is option A.
