铃蟾科（学名：Bombinatoridae）是两栖纲无尾目的一个科，现存2属12种，分布于欧洲和亚洲东部地区。因其舌与盘舌蟾科相似，皆为圆盘状，故有时也将铃蟾科下的两属划归为盘舌蟾科下。 巴蟾属（Barbourula） 布桑加巴蟾（Barbourula busuangensis） 加都巴蟾（Barbourula kalimantanensis） 铃蟾属（Bombina） 红腹铃蟾（Bombina bombina） 强婚刺铃蟾（Bombina fortinuptialis） 大蹼铃蟾（Bombina lichuanensis） 微蹼铃蟾（Bombina maxima） 东方铃蟾（Bombina microdeladigitora） 亚平宁铃蟾（Bombina pachypus） 多彩铃蟾（Bombina variegata）

Bombinatoridae is a family of toads found in Eurasia. Species of the family have flattened bodies and some are highly toxic.
==Taxonomy and systematics== Fossil specimens of the genus Bombina are known from the Pliocene to the Pleistocene. The earliest fossil specimens are Eobarbourula from the Eocene of India, and Hatzegobatrachus from Late Cretaceous of Hateg island, Romania. The genus Barbourula was considered to be situated intermediate between Discoglossus and Bombina, but closer to the latter, so was added to the Bombinatoridae when that family was split from the Discoglossidae.
