Colostethus is a genus of poison dart frogs native to Central and South America, from Panama south to Colombia, Ecuador, and northern Peru. Their common name is rocket frogs, but this name may refer to frogs in other genera and families, following the taxonomic revision of the genus in 2006.
"Centrolene" medemi' is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae. It occurs in the Cordillera Oriental in the Tolima, Caquetá, and Putumayo Departments in Colombia and adjacent Napo in Ecuador. The generic placement of this species within the subfamily Centroleninae is uncertain. The specific name medemi honors Fred Medem, collector of the holotype. Common name Medem giant glass frog has been coined for it.
Nymphargus cochranae is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae. It is found in the lower Amazonian slopes of the Cordillera Occidental of Ecuador and adjacent Colombia, though the Colombian records require confirmation.
Colostethus fraterdanieli is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae. It is endemic to the Andes in Colombia. Colostethus yaguara might be its junior synonym. It lives on the ground close to streams in cloud forests and in dry tropical forests. It is threatened by habitat loss caused by agriculture and logging.
Colostethus inguinalis is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae. It is endemic to northwestern and northcentral Colombia. Its vernacular name is common rocket frog, although this name can also refer to Colostethus panamansis that until 2004 was considered a junior synonym of Colostethus inguinalis. Much of the older literature on Colostethus inguinalis is actually about Colostethus panamansis.
Colostethus latinasus is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae. It is known from Cerro Pirre in Darién Province, Panama, from Chocó Department in adjacent Colombia, and from Tierralta, Córdoba Department, Colombia.
Colostethus panamansis, also known as the Panama rocket frog or (ambiguously) common rocket frog, is a species of poison dart frog. It is found in northwestern Colombia and Panama. It is one of the best studied poison dart frogs; however, until 2004 Colostethus panamansis was considered a synonym of Colostethus inguinalis, and consequently the older literature uses that name.
Colostethus pratti is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae. It is found in the northwestern Colombia and Panama, possibly also in southeastern Costa Rica. It is sometimes known as the Pratt's rocket frog. Colostethus pratti is named after Antwerp Edgar Pratt, an explorer who collected the type series.
"Colostethus" ramirezi is a species of frog that is endemic to Colombia. It is only known from the region of its type locality, Urrao in the Antioquia Department. Its generic placement is uncertain; for the moment it is retained as "Colostethus" within the family Dendrobatidae.
Colostethus yaguara is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae. It is endemic to Colombia where it is only known from its type locality, Ituango, on the Cordillera Occidental in the northern Antioquia Department. It might be conspecific with Colostethus fraterdanieli. Its natural habitats are cloud forests where it can be found in leaf-litter near streams.
Ameerega ingeri, sometimes known as the Niceforo's poison frog, Brother Niceforo's poison frog, or Inger's poison frog, is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae. It is endemic to the Colombian Amazon. It is known with certainty only from its type locality in the Caquetá Department. Records from the Putumayo Department ascribed to this species likely refer to Ameerega bilinguis, although other sources continue to include Putumayo in the range of Ameerega ingeri.
Dendropsophus riveroi is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. It is found in the upper Amazon Basin in western Brazil, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, and southern Colombia. In Ecuador it has been mixed with the newly described Dendropsophus shiwiarum. The specific name honours Juan A. Rivero.
Osteocephalus cabrerai is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. It is found in the Amazon Basin in Brazil (Manaus), northeastern Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Guyana, and French Guiana, possibly wider. Some earlier records refer to Osteocephalus buckleyi.
Pristimantis cabrerai is a species of frog in the family Craugastoridae. It is endemic to Colombia and is known from the Cordillera Occidental in Antioquia and Caldas Departments. Although common name Valle robber frog has been suggested for it, the specimen from Valle del Cauca is no longer assigned to this species.
Pristimantis delicatus is a species of frog in the family Craugastoridae. It is endemic to the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, Colombia, and is only known from the Magdalena Department. Common name delicate robber frog has been coined for this species.
Pristimantis elegans is a species of frog in the family Craugastoridae. It is endemic to the Colombian Andes and occurs on the Cordillera Oriental in the Cundinamarca and Boyacá Departments. Common name elegant robber frog has been coined for it.
Strabomantis ingeri, or Inger's robber frog, is a species of frog in the Craugastoridae family. It is found on the eastern and western slopes of the Cordillera Oriental, Colombia. Its altitudinal range is 1,550–3,320 m (5,090–10,890 ft) asl. It might occur in adjacent Venezuela. It is named after Robert F. Inger, an American zoologist from the Field Museum of Natural History.
Gastrotheca bufona is a species of frog in the Hemiphractidae family. It is endemic to Colombia and known from the Cordillera Central and Cordillera Occidental in Antioquia and Caldas Departments, at elevations of 1,430–2,200 m (4,690–7,220 ft) asl. The specific name bufona is derived from Spanish bufón, meaning a jester or clown, and refers to the frog's "gaudy" appearance.
The Helena's marsupial frog is a species of frog in the family Hemiphractidae. It is endemic to the Páramo de Tamá on the Venezuelan-Colombian border and occurs in Apure and Táchira states of Venezuela and Norte de Santander Department on the Cordillera Oriental of Colombia. It is named after Helen Gaige, an American herpetologist.
Niceforonia nana is a species of frog in the Craugastoridae family. It is endemic to the Cordillera Oriental, Colombia, and found at 3,000–3,850 m (9,840–12,630 ft) asl.
