There are various indigenous species that are available only in India. So how biodiversity and taxonomists, ecologists make this claim. At least certain terrestrial animals that are endemic to India, could be claimed based on the climatic condition and their habitat. In marine species, how the taxa or a species could be claimed to be endemic to India or any other country?

Michael Henrik Wynn

Your problem is not species boundaries, but rather the fact that India is not a biological category. No frog ever recognized it as such.
