This taxon was named in Megophrys in the same paper where (arguably) the species was being transferred to Panophrys. In the Megophrys parva group of Fei, Ye, Huang, Jiang, and Xie, 2005, Illust. Key Chinese Amph.: 82. Yang, 2008, in Yang and Rao (ed.), Amph. Rept. Yunnan: 28-29, provided a brief account (as Megophrys daweimontis) for Yunnan, China. Fei, Hu, Ye, and Huang, 2009, Fauna Sinica, Amph. 2: 455-457, provided an account for China and spot map.
