Stumpffia is a genus of microhylid frogs endemic to Madagascar. The genus was proposed to be a junior synonym of Rhombophryne in 2016, but this proposal was contradicted and reversed by authors of a subsequent study.. To keep Stumpffia monophyletic, the latter study established a new genus, Anilany for "Stumpffia" helenae, a species that would otherwise have rendered Stumpffia paraphyletic.
