Leptodactylus silvanimbus is a species of frog in the family Leptodactylidae. It is endemic to Honduras found in the region of El Chaguiton, Ocotepeque. This region is located at 1870 meters, making this species the only one in its genus to live at such high elevation. [2] Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forests, intermittent rivers, pastureland, and ponds. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Leptodactylus fragilis, known under many common names such as the Mexican white-lipped frog, American white-lipped frog or simply white-lipped frog, is a species of leptodactylid frog. Its distribution ranges from the Lower Rio Grande Valley of Texas in the United States south through Mexico and Central America to Colombia and Venezuela. It is often—wrongly—referred to as Leptodactylus labialis(Cope, 1878), which is a junior synonym of Leptodactylus mystacinus.
Leptodactylus caatingae is a species of frog in the family Leptodactylidae. It is endemic to the Caatinga region of northeastern Brazil and known from Espirito Santo, Paraíba, and Bahia states. Prior to its description it was included in Leptodactylus latinasus. Its natural habitat is dry Caatinga savanna; other aspects of its ecology are unknown. Potential threats to it are overgrazing and fires.

It is found in the Gran Chaco of northern Argentina, Bolivia, and Paraguay and east and south to southern Brazil and Uruguay. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical grasslands near waterbodies. It tolerates anthropogenic disturbance well. It breeds in underground chambers. This abundant and adaptable species is not facing any important threats.
Leptodactylus leptodactyloides is a species of frogs in the family Leptodactylidae. Its local name is sapito leptodactilo. It is found in the greater Amazon Basin and the Guianas. Leptodactylus leptodactyloides occurs in a range of habitats: savannas, open areas, forest edges, and secondary and primary lowland forest. Reproduction takes place in temporary waterbodies.
Leptodactylus lithonaetes is a species of frog in the family Leptodactylidae.

Leptodactylus magistris is a species of frog in the family Leptodactylidae. It is endemic to Venezuela. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forests, rivers, freshwater marshes, and intermittent freshwater marshes. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Leptodactylus marambaiae is a species of frog in the family Leptodactylidae. It is endemic to Brazil. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist shrubland, freshwater marshes, intermittent freshwater marshes, and sandy shores. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Leptodactylus melanonotus is a species of frog in the family Leptodactylidae. It is found in Central America. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forests, subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, subtropical or tropical mangrove forests, subtropical or tropical moist montane forests, dry savanna, moist savanna, subtropical or tropical seasonally wet or flooded lowland grassland, intermittent freshwater lakes, freshwater marshes, intermittent freshwater marshes, pastureland, plantations, rural gardens, urban areas, heavily degraded former forest, water storage areas, ponds, and canals and ditches.
Leptodactylus nesiotus is a species of frog in the family Leptodactylidae. It was originally described from Icacos Swamp on the south-western peninsula of Trinidad Island and was for a long time believed to be endemic to the island. However, in 2018 specimens were also reported from Guyana, Suriname, and French Guiana. It is probably the sister taxon of Leptodactylus validus. Indeed, the French Guianan records were first identified as L. validus, and it is possible that also some other L. validus records refer to Leptodactylus nesiotus. It is likely that this species is also found in Venezuela, perhaps even wider in open areas of northern South America.
Leptodactylus latrans is a species of frog in the family Leptodactylidae. It is native to much of South America east of the Andes, and Trinidad and Tobago. It has many common names, including rana criolla, sapo-rana llanero, butter frog, and lesser foam frog.
Leptodactylus pascoensis is a species of frog in the family Leptodactylidae. It is endemic to Peru where it is only known from two localities ( ). It is an inhabitant of forest floor of the Amazonian flanks of the Andes. Reproduction takes place in foam nests in temporary ponds.
