Phyllodytes
''Phyllodytes'' is a genus of frogs (heart-tongued frogs) in the family Hylidae. It is endemic to eastern Brazil. Taxonomy Based on genetic evidence, genus '' Phytotriades'' was erected in 2009 to remedy polyphyly of ''Phyllodytes'' as then defined. It remains to be elucidated which ''Phyllodytes'' species, apart from ''Phytotriades'' (=''Phyllodytes'') ''auratus'', the type species of the genus ''Phytotriades'', might belong to ''Phytotriades'' instead of ''Phyllodytes''. With ''Phytotriades auratus'' from Trinidad and Venezuela placed in its own genus, the remaining ''Phyllodytes'' species are all endemic to Brazil. Description These are small arboreal frogs which live and breed exclusively on epiphytic bromeliad plants. They have large odontoids ("fangs") on the dentaries. Male ''Phyllodytes'' do vocalize, in contrast to ''Phytotriades''. Species This genus includes 14 species: AmphibiaWeb continues to include ''Phytotriades auratus ''Phytotriades'' is a genus of tree fr ...

Phyllodytes Amadoi
''Phyllodytes amadoi'' is a frog in the family Hylidae, endemic to Brazil. It lives in the Atlantic rainforest.

Phytotriades Auratus
''Phytotriades'' is a genus of tree frogs in the family Hylidae. As currently delimited, the genus is monotypic and contains ''Phytotriades auratus'', commonly known as the golden tree frog, bromeliad-dwelling treefrog, El Tucuche golden tree frog, or Trinidad heart-tongued frog. Taxonomy ''Phytotriades'' was separated from the genus '' Phyllodytes'' based primarily on genetic evidence; this also solved the unusual, disjunct distribution of the genus (the remaining ''Phyllodytes'' are endemic to eastern Brazil). Nevertheless, the contents of the genus remain to be elucidated. Earlier on, also '' Phyllodytes wuchereri'' was included in the "''Phyllodytes auratus'' group", but the position of this species has not been addressed. At the moment, it is not clear which ''Phyllodytes'' species might eventually end up in this genus. AmphibiaWeb continues to include ''Phytotriades auratus'' in ''Phyllodytes''.

Phyllodytes Acuminatus
The Alagoas heart-tongued frog (''Phyllodytes acuminatus'') is a species of frog in the family Hylidae, the tree frogs and allies. It is endemic to Brazil, where it is known from coastal regions in Bahia, Alagoas, and Pernambuco. This frog is associated with bromeliads. It is a common and widespread species but its populations are decreasing due to habitat loss. This species can be differentiated from other members of genus ''Phyllodytes'' by the double row of papilla Papilla (Latin, 'nipple') or papillae may refer to: In animals * Papilla (fish anatomy), in the mouth of fish * Basilar papilla, a sensory organ of lizards, amphibians and fish * Dental papilla, in a developing tooth * Dermal papillae, part of ...e surrounding its mouth.Campos, T.
