Anaxyrus woodhousei
These are medium sized toads. The ones I saw were about 2.5-3 inches. The dorsum is light brown with raised dark spots and a white line that runs from between the eyes to the cloaca. The parotid glands are prominent and brownish in color. The venter is usually unspotted.
These are found across the plains of Iowa. These particular ones were found in a flooded valley behind a rural house.
Short little chunky things. Cute.
