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.

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).

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) .
