Incilius marmoreus (formerly Bufo marmoreus, common name Wiegmann's toad or marbled toad) is a species of toad in the family Bufonidae. It is endemic to Mexico and found along the Pacific coastal plain between northern Sinaloa and Chiapas. There is also an isolated population in the region of Veracruz on the Atlantic coast, and a record from Hidalgo.[1][2]
