Agalychnis medinai, also known as the Rancho Grande leaf frog, is a species of frog in the subfamily Phyllomedusinae. [1] [2] It is endemic to the central part of the Venezuelan Coastal Range. [1] [2] [3]
Agalychnis medinai inhabits cloud forests at elevations of 975–1,447 m (3,199–4,747 ft) above sea level. It is a rarely spotted arboreal frog, usually seen in temporal or permanents pools, its breeding habitat, during the wet season. It can also live in secondary forests near artificial bodies of water. It is threatened by forest loss and extraction of surface water. Its range overlaps with the Yurubí National Park and, at least formerly, with the Henri Pittier National Park, where its type locality is located – it has not been sighted there during the last decades.

Anomaloglossus breweri is a species of frogs in the family Aromobatidae. It is only known from its type locality, Aprada-tepui in the Bolívar state of southeastern Venezuela. This species was discovered by scientists exploring the inaccessible and remote region of Aprada-tepui.

Hyalinobatrachium pallidum is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae. It is endemic to Venezuela. It is known from its type locality, Guacharaquita between La Grita and Páramo de La Negra in the Táchira state, and from a number of sites in the Sierra de Perijá, Zulia state. Its altitudinal range is 1,132–1,832 m (3,714–6,010 ft) asl. There is also an unconfirmed record from San Isidro in the Barinas state.
