Hyloxalus betancuri is a species of frogs in the family Dendrobatidae. It is endemic to Colombia where it is only known from its type locality in Ituango, Antioquia Department, on the Cordillera Occidental at 1,450 m (4,760 ft) asl. Its natural habitats are sub-Andean forests where it can be found on the ground next to streams. There are no known threats to this species, and the type locality is within the Parque Nacional Natural Paramillo.
Hyloxalus bocagei is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae. It is found on the northeastern side of the Andes in Ecuador and in Colombia. The specific name bocagei honors José Vicente Barbosa du Bocage, a Portuguese zoologist. Common name Bocage's rocket frog has been coined for this species.
Hyloxalus cevallosi, also known as Palanda rocket frog, is a species of poison dart frogs in the family Dendrobatidae. It is named after Gabriel Cevallos García, a famous Ecuadorean writer. This species of frog exists on the east side of the Andes in Ecuador near the Pastaza Province as well as the Zamora-Chinchipe Province. Though it has been recorded in Peru, the records have yet to be confirmed. Its natural habitats are very humid premontane and pluvial premontane forests.
Hyloxalus chocoensis, sometimes known as the Choco rocket frog, is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae. It is found in western Colombia to east-central Panama. In Colombia it is known from Chocó, Valle del Cauca, and Antioquia. Anomaloglossus confusus from northwestern Ecuador were formerly confused with this species, but the identity of many other populations remains uncertain. Taxonomic uncertainty hampers knowledge about the species.
Hyloxalus littoralis is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae. It is endemic to Peru where it is known from Lima, Huánuco, and Ancash Regions. Population near Lima was an introduction one and may now be extinct. It natural altitudinal range is 665–2,180 m (2,182–7,152 ft) asl.
Hyloxalus marmoreoventris is a species of frogs in the family Dendrobatidae. It is endemic to Ecuador and only known from its type locality on the eastern slope of the Andes in the Tungurahua Province. It is a little known species which possibly has not been observed after it was first described.
Hyloxalus nexipus is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae. It is found on eastern slopes and foothills of the Andes from southeastern Ecuador south to the region of Yurimaguas in Peru.
Hyloxalus ruizi is a species of frogs in the family Dendrobatidae. It is endemic to Colombia and only known from the Eastern Ranges of the Colombian Andes, in the Cundinamarca Department. Its natural habitats are cloud forests. It occurs on the forest floor and along streams. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Hyloxalus saltuarius is a species of frogs in the family Dendrobatidae. It is endemic to Colombia where it is only known from the Cordillera Oriental in the Caquetá Department. Its natural habitats are premontane humid forests. It lives on the forest floor.
Hyloxalus shuar is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae. It is endemic to Ecuador and occurs on the eastern slopes of the Andes. Common names Santiago rocket frog and Shuar rocket frog have been proposed for it.
Hyloxalus toachi is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae. It is endemic to northwestern Ecuador.
Hyloxalus chlorocraspedus is a species of frogs in the family Dendrobatidae. It is only known from two locations: its type locality near Porto Walter, Acre state in Brazil, and another locality in the Ucayali Region of Peru.
Hyloxalus is a genus of poison dart frogs, family Dendrobatidae. The genus is distributed in Central and South America, from Panama south to Peru, along with Venezuela, Colombia, and Ecuador. They also inhabit the eastern foothills of the Andes in Bolivia to Venezuela, east to the upper Amazon Basin.
Hemicentrotus pulcherrimus is a species of sea urchin, the only one in the monotypic genus Hemicentrotus. It was first described by the American engineer and marine zoologist Alexander Agassiz in 1864 as Psammechinus pulcherrimus. Its range extends along the coasts of Korea and China, and in Japan from Kyūshū to Ishikari Bay. An edible species, it is harvested from Kyūshū to Fukui, in the Sea of Japan.
The cream-backed poison frog is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae endemic to Colombia. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical, high-altitude grassland, shrub-dominated wetlands, swamps, intermittent freshwater marshes, rural gardens, urban areas, and heavily degraded former forests. The cream-backed poison frog is one of the less-toxic of the family. It has undergone several name changes since its discovery. Originally called Dendrobates subpunctatus, its name was changed to Colostethus subpuctatus once the family Dendrobatidae underwent a division of species and genera other than Dendrobates were coined. Recently, minor skeletal differences have separated the cream-backed poison frog from the rocket frogs, and placed it in another genus entirely, Hyloxalus.
Hyloxalus parcus is a species of frogs in the family Dendrobatidae. It is endemic to Ecuador where it is only known from its type locality in the Zamora-Santiago Provinceat elevation of 1,981 m (6,499 ft) asl.
