Craugastor bocourti (common name: Bocourt's robber frog) is a species of frog in the family Craugastoridae. It is endemic to Guatemala and found on the mountains of the Alta Verapaz Department and the Sierra de las Minas. [1] [2] It is named after Marie Firmin Bocourt, a French zoologist and artist. [3]
Its natural habitat is cloud forest where it lives on the forest floor. It occurs at elevations of 1,300–1,700 m (4,300–5,600 ft) above sea level. Craugastor bocourti is threatened by habitat loss caused by agriculture, wood extraction, and human settlement. [1]

Incilius bocourti is a species of toad in the family Bufonidae. It is found in southwestern Guatemala and in Chiapas in the adjacent Mexico. Its phylogenetic position is uncertain; it might not to belong to this genus, being the sister taxon of Anaxyrus instead. It is named after Marie Firmin Bocourt, a French zoologist and artist.

Craugastor amniscola is a species of frogs in the family Craugastoridae. It is found in western Guatemala and in Chiapas, Mexico. The specific name amniscola is derived from Latin amnis for rivulet and -cola for dweller and refers to the habitat of this species. Accordingly, common name rivulet rainfrog has been coined for it.
Craugastor matudai is a species of frog in the family Craugastoridae. It is found in the lower montane zone at elevations of 1,500–2,000 m (4,900–6,600 ft) above sea level on the Pacific versant of Mexico and Guatemala, from Cerro Ovando in southwestern Chiapas (Mexico) to Fraternidad, a village in Esquipulas Palo Gordo, central Guatemala. It is named after Eizi Matuda, Japanese–Mexican botanist who hosted Hobart Muir Smith and his wife Rozella B. Smith, the collectors of the type series from Cerro Ovando.
Gunther's robber frog, Günther's robber frog, or Guerreran robber frog is a species of frog in the family Craugastoridae. It is endemic to the Sierra Madre del Sur in the Guerrero state, Mexico. Its natural habitats are pine, oak, and pine-oak forests with plenty of leaf-litter on the ground. It is a relatively common species but declining and threatened by habitat loss and disturbance.
Craugastor pozo is a species of frog in the family Craugastoridae. It is endemic to Mexico and known from the western foothills and highlands of Chiapas. The specific name pozo refers to the local name of the area near its type locality, El Pozo. Common name Pozo Turipache rainfrog has been coined for it.

Craugastor ranoides is a species of frog in the family Craugastoridae. It is found in the southern Atlantic lowland of Nicaragua and northwestern Costa Rica, and through Costa Rica to extreme western Panama. Its natural habitats are, principally, lowland and premontane wet forests in association with small streams, but also dry forests with perennial streams. It is threatened by habitat loss and chytridiomycosis. The species has disappeared from much of its former range in Costa Rica, also in pristine habitats, possibly because of chytridiomycosis.

Craugastor talamancae is a species of frog in the family Craugastoridae. This anuran is found in Costa Rica, Nicaragua, and Panama. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, subtropical or tropical moist montane forests, plantations, rural gardens, and heavily degraded former forest. According to accounts of J.M. Savage and of C. Michael Hogan, this frog is considered to have an altitudinal niche between 16 and 646 metres. The taxon is threatened by habitat loss.
