Duellmanohyla uranochroa

Duellmanohyla uranochroa (Red-eyed Stream Frog) is a species of frog in the Hylidae family. It is found in Costa Rica and Panama. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, subtropical or tropical moist montanes, and rivers.

This species is critically endangered (Shoville). Declines and local extinctions have been reported for populations (referred to as Hyla uranochroa) within the Monteverde region of Costa Rica's Cordillera de Tilaran, synchronous with the decline of 24 (from a total of 53) other amphibian species during 1990 (Pounds et al. 1997).
