Eleutherodactylus parabates is a species of frog in the Eleutherodactylidae family. It is endemic to Hispaniola and found along the crest of the Sierra de Neiba mountains, on the border between the Dominican Republic and Haiti.[1][2] Its natural habitat is high-elevation, dense, closed hardwood forest. This habitat is declining extremely rapidly. Eleutherodactylus parabates was last recorded in 1996.[1]
