Charadrahyla View in CoL , new genus
TYPE SPECIES: Hyla taeniopus Günther, 1901 .
DIAGNOSIS: This genus is diagnosed by 56 transformations in nuclear and mitochondrial proteins and ribosomal genes. See appendix 5 for a complete list of these molecular synapomorphies. We are not aware of any morphological synapomorphy supporting this genus.
ETYMOLOGY: Derived from the Greek word charadra (ravine) 1 Hyla . In reference to the habits of these frogs. The gender is feminine.
COMMENTS: This new genus includes the species formerly placed in the Hyla taeniopus group.
CONTENTS: Five species. Charadrahyla altipotens (Duellman, 1968) , new comb.; Charadrahyla chaneque (Duellman, 1961) , new comb.; Charadrahyla nephila (Mendelson and Campbell, 1999) , new comb.; Charadrahyla taeniopus (Günther, 1901) , new comb.; Charadrahyla trux (Adler and Denis, 1972) , new comb.

TYPE SPECIES: Hyla uranochroa Cope, 1876 , by original designation.
DIAGNOSIS: This genus is diagnosed by 48 transformations in nuclear and mitochondrial protein and ribosomal genes. See appendix 5 for a complete list of these molecular synapomorphies. Likely morphological synapomorphies of this group are the red iris, the labial stripe expanded below orbit, the lack of nuptial excrescences, the ventrally orient ed funnelshaped oral disc in larvae, labial tooth rows reduced in length, and absence of lateral processes on upper jaw sheath (Duellman, 2001).
CONTENTS: Eight species. Duellmanohyla chamulae (Duellman, 1961) ; Duellmanohyla ignicolor (Duellman, 1961) ; Duellmanohyla lythrodes (Savage, 1968) ; Duellmanohyla rufioculis (Taylor, 1952) ; Duellmanohyla salvavida (McCranie and Wilson, 1986) ; Duellmanohyla schmidtorum (Stuart, 1954) ; Duellmanohyla soralia (Wilson and Mc Cranie, 1985); Duellmanohyla uranochroa (Cope, 1876) .
