Bufo nebulifer is a species of toad in the Bufonidae family. It is found in Mexico and the United States. Its natural habitats are temperate forests, temperate grassland, intermittent rivers, swamps, freshwater marshes, intermittent freshwater marches, sandy shores, urban areas, and canals and ditches. Much of the literature refers to this species as Bufo valliceps, but the species has been split, and Bufo valliceps occurs along the gulf coast from Mexico up to Louisiana.
