Mantidactylus is a frog genus in the mantellid subfamily Mantellinae. This genus is restricted to Madagascar. The genus is divided into several subgenera that form monophyletic genetic clusters and are ecologically similar.

Taxonomy
editMantidactylus was erected by Boulenger in 1895 with the type species Rana guttulata.[1][2] For a long time the genus contained a wide variety of mostly terrestrial Madagascan frogs, that were divided into species groups[3] and/or subgenera. Several of these groups were subsequently erected to genus level: Blommersia, Boehmantis, Gephyromantis, Guibemantis, Spinomantis and Wakea.[4] Today, six subgenera remain within the genus Mantidactylus:
- Mantidactylus Boulenger, 1895
- Hylobatrachus Laurent, 1943
- Brygoomantis Dubois, 1992
- Ochthomantis Glaw & Vences, 1994
- Chonomantis Glaw & Vences, 1994
- Maitsomantis Glaw & Vences, 2006
