Atlantihyla

Atlantihyla is a genus of frogs in the family Hylidae. These frogs live in Honduras and Guatemala in Central America. Scientists named these frogs "Atlantihyla" because they live on the east side of the narrow piece of land, which is the same side as the Atlantic Ocean. These frogs are named stream frogs in English.
Taxonomy.
Scientists made the genus using information about DNA. Julián Faivovich and colleagues looked at the subfamily Hylinae in 2018. They moved two former "Ptychohyla" species to "Atlantihyla" and four former "Ptychohyla" species to "Quilticohyla." "Atlantihyla" is a sister group with "Bromeliohyla", "Duellmanohyla", and "Quilticohyla". A third "Atlantihyla" species was described in 2020.
Description.
These frogs only look alike in one way: They have a white stripe on the sides of their bodies and a ridge on their backs. Adult male frogs are and adult female frogs are long from nose to rear end. The tadpoles have large mouth discs.

There are three species in this genus:
AmphibiaWeb says this genus is monotypic, with "Atlantihyla melissa" as the only species in it.
