The Ranidae family includes species from around the world. They are well-known in North America where some species have been immortalized in American culture (e.g., Mark Twain's Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County was likely the ranid Rana draytonii).

Ranids have generalized frog body forms with strong hindlimbs, toe webbing, and a generalized aquatic tadpole stage. Most species can be both terrestrial and aquatic as adults and breed in water to lay eggs that will hatch into free-living tadpoles.

Known as the True frogs, this family has undergone many taxonomic reorganizations and phylogenetic studies. Many previous subfamilies have been elevated to families, and the relations of remaining species are still unresolved. Several genera were suggested by Frost et al 2006 for previous Rana; however, subsequent studies (Yuan et al. 2016) show doing so would create problems of paraphyly in other genera. Instead they recognized subgenera within Rana for the major traditional species groups; for example, using Lithobates as the subgenus for the Rana palmipes group. AmphibiaWeb recommends the optional use of these subgenera to refer to these major species groups, with names written as Rana (Aquarana) catesbeiana, for example.
