Dinesh, K. P., Vijayakumar, S. P., Ramesh, Vijay, Jayarajan, Aditi, Chandramouli, S. R. & Shanker, Kartik, 2020, A deeply divergent lineage of Walkerana (Anura: Ranixalidae) from the Western Ghats of Peninsular India, Zootaxa 4729 (2), pp. 266-276 : 269

Phylogeny of Walkerana and generic allocation of the new lineage

Among the members of Ranixalidae , we recovered two well supported clades assignable to the genera, Walkerana and Indirana , as in the studies of Dahanukar et al. (2016) and Garg & Biju (2016). The new deeply divergent lineage is assigned to the genus Walkerana , based on its phylogenetic position within Ranixalidae ( Fig. 2 ).
