Crossodactylus franciscanus is a species of frog in the family Hylodidae. It is endemic to Brazil and has been observed at two sites, both in the state of Minas Gerais. [1] [2]
The São Francisco River is a large river in Brazil. With a length of 2,914 kilometres (1,811 mi), it is the longest river that runs entirely in Brazilian territory, and the fourth longest in South America and overall in Brazil. It used to be known as the Opara by the indigenous people before colonisation, and is today also known as "Velho Chico".
Boana latistriata is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. It is endemic to Brazil and only known from its type locality, Itatiaia National Park, and from Marmelópolis, both in the state of Minas Gerais. The specific name latistriata refers to the wide stripes on the back of this frog.

They typically inhabit streams in mountainous areas in the Atlantic Forest or in montane savanna.
Crossodactylus dantei or the Murici spinythumb frog, is a species of frog in the family Hylodidae. It is endemic to Brazil. Scientists know it exclusively from the type locality: Murici, in Alagoas. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest and rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Crossodactylus dispar is a species of frog in the family Hylodidae. It is endemic to Brazil. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest, subtropical or tropical moist montane forest, and rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Crossodactylus gaudichaudii is a species of frog in the family Hylodidae. The species is endemic to Brazil.
Crossodactylus grandis, or the Bahia spinythumb frog, is a species of frog in the family Hylodidae. It is endemic to Brazil. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical high-altitude grassland and rivers. It is known solely from the Parque Nacional do Itatiaia in Minas Gerais in Brazil, where it lives in cloud forests. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Crossodactylus lutzorum is a species of frog in the family Hylodidae. It is endemic to Brazil. Scientists know it exclusively from the type locality: Fazenda Água Branca in Bahia. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest and rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Crossodactylus schmidti or Schmidt's spinythumb frog is a species of frog in the family Hylodidae. It is found in Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest and rivers. People have seen it between 300 and 750 meters above sea level. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Crossodactylus trachystomus is a species of frog in the family Hylodidae. It is endemic to the Espinhaço Mountains in Minas Gerais, Brazil.
Hylodes uai is a species of frog in the family Hylodidae. It is endemic to the Espinhaço Mountains in the Minas Gerais state, Brazil, where it is known from the Mangabeiras Park in Belo Horizonte, and another location on the southern end of the Espinhaço Mountains.

It is endemic to eastern Brazil and occurs in southeastern Bahia, Espírito Santo, northeastern Minas Gerais, and Rio de Janeiro states. The specific name schirchi honours Paulo F. Schirch, a Brazilian zoologist who collected the type series. Common names Santo smooth horned frog and Brazilian smooth horned frog can refer to this species, the latter specifically referring to Proceratophrys precrenulata that is now considered a junior synonym only.
