Plectrohyla psiloderma is a species of frogs in the family Hylidae. It is found in the mountains of western Honduras and adjacent El Salvador. It occurs in lower montane moist forests at elevations of 2,450–2,530 m (8,040–8,300 ft) above sea level, and lives on low vegetation and boulders along pristine streams, its breeding habitat. It is threatened by habitat loss caused primarily by agricultural encroachment and wood extraction. Pesticides are suspected to be a threat. Chytridiomycosis is also a potential threat. It is found in the Celaque National Park in Honduras, and might also occur is some other protected areas.

Craugastor alfredi is a species of frog in the family Craugastoridae. It is found in Guatemala and Mexico. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest. It is threatened by habitat loss. Many populations are attracted to living in or near cave entrances, due to orthopterans and other food sources. They are categorized by having truncated digital pads on their two outer fingers and each fifth toe extends longer than the third. A subspecies of Craugastor alfredi was recently discovered in the Honduras called Craugastor cyanochthebius.

<i>Craugastor chrysozetetes</i>

Craugastor chrysozetetes is a possibly extinct species of frog in the family Craugastoridae. It is endemic to Honduras where it is only known from near its type locality on the Cerro Búfalo, Cordillera de Nombre de Dios, at the edge of the Pico Bonito National Park. Common name McCranie's robber frog has been coined for this species. However, James McCranie himself has argued that this name "should be rejected in favor of a name associated with the type locality instead of a name tied to one of the three authors who named this species".
