Charadrahyla
,
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.

Duellmanohyla
Campbell and Smith, 1992
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).
