Charadrahyla
''Charadrahyla'' is a genus of frogs in the family Hylidae. It is endemic to tropical southern Mexico. The generic name was derived from Greek ''charadra'' ("ravine") and ''Hyla'', in reference to the habits of these frogs. Accordingly, common name ravine treefrogs has been coined for the genus. Taxonomy and systematics This genus was erected in 2005 following a major revision of the Hylidae. It corresponds to the former ''Charadrahyla taeniopus, Hyla taeniopus'' group as defined by in 1970. The genus was originally diagnosed using molecular markers; no morphological synapomorphy, synapomorphies supporting the new genus could be identified. The sister taxon of ''Charadrahyla'' is ''Megastomatohyla''. Five of the species in this genus were previously placed in the genus ''Hyla''. Two species were later species description, described as new in this genus, and another two were transferred from ''Exerodonta'' in 2018 based on molecular data.

Charadrahyla Pinorum
''Charadrahyla pinorum'' is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. It is endemic to the Pacific slopes of Sierra Madre del Sur between central Guerrero and southwestern and central Oaxaca, Mexico. Common names pine wood treefrog and Mexican pine woods treefrog have been proposed for it. Its closest relative is probably ''Charadrahyla juanitae''. Description Adult males measure and adult females, based on a single specimen only, in snout–vent length; both ''Charadrahyla pinorum'' and ''Charadrahyla juanitae'' are small in comparison to other ''Charadrahyla ''. The snout in males is rounded in dorsal profile and truncate to rounded in lateral profile. The tympanum is not visible. Adult males have vocal slits. Coloration typically includes conspicuous orange to salmon flash colors, but may occasionally be just gray. Chocolate brown to black middorsal stripe is either complete or entirely absent. Habitat and conservation ''Charadrahyla pinorum'' occurs in cloud forests, trop ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Charadrahyla Nephila
''Charadrahyla nephila'' is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. It is endemic to Mexico and occurs in the Sierra de Juárez and Sierra Mixe in the northern Oaxacan highlands; there is also a questionable record from the Sierra de los Tuxtlas, Veracruz. Prior to its description, it was mixed with ''Hyla chaneque'' (now '' Charadrahyla chaneque''). The specific name ''nephila'' is derived from Greek ''nephos'' ("cloud") and ''philia'' ("fondness"), referring to the cloud forest habitat of this species. Common name Oaxacan cloud-forest treefrog has been coined for it. Description Adult males measure and adult females in snout–vent length. The body is slender. The snout is rounded. The tympanum is distinct and rounded but dorsally obscured by the thick supra-tympanic fold. The fingers and the toes are long, slender, and partially webbed, bearing large terminal discs (slightly smaller in the fingers than in the toes). Dorsal skin is smooth. Coloration is sexually dimorph ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
