The Declining Amphibian Populations Task Force (DAPTF) was established under the sponsorship of the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Species Survival Commission (SSC) around 1990.

One of the functions of the DAPTF is to assemble all known references to inventory and monitoring efforts on amphibians on a worldwide scale.
