The correct answer is A. Rhacophorus.

Explanation:

Rhacophorus is the genus name for flying frogs. These frogs are known for their ability to glide through the air. They have webbed feet and large toe pads that help them catch the air and glide between trees.
Bufo refers to the genus of true toads, which are not capable of flight.
Phyllobates is a genus of poison dart frogs, which are known for their bright colors and toxic secretions, not their flying ability.
Necturus is a genus of aquatic salamanders, which do not fly.
Thus, the flying frog belongs to the genus Rhacophorus.
