Colostethus is a genus of poison dart frogs native to Central and South America, from Panama south to Colombia, Ecuador, and northern Peru. Their common name is rocket frogs, but this name may refer to frogs in other genera and families, following the taxonomic revision of the genus in 2006.
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 borjai is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae. It is endemic to Colombia and only known from its type locality, Amalfi, Antioquia, on the Cordillera Central at 1,575 m (5,167 ft) asl. Its natural habitats are sub-Andean forests. Very little is known about this species.
Leucostethus brachistriatus is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae. It is endemic to Colombia and occurs on the western slopes of Cordillera Central and on Cordillera Occidental. Common name stripe-throated rocket frog has been proposed for it.
Hyloxalus breviquartus is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae. It is found in the northern part of Cordillera Occidental in Antioquia, Colombia, and in Carchi Province in northwestern Ecuador. Colombian distribution may be wider. Its natural habitats are montane forests next to streams and very humid premontane forests. It is threatened by habitat loss, although it occurs in the Las Orquídeas National Park, its type locality.
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 excisus is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae. It is endemic to Colombia. It is only known from its type locality near Medellín, Antioquia Department, on the Cordillera Central.
Leucostethus fraterdanieli is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae. It is endemic to the Andes in Colombia. Colostethus yaguara might be its junior synonym. It lives on the ground close to streams in cloud forests and in dry tropical forests. It is threatened by habitat loss caused by agriculture and logging.

Colostethus yaguara is a species of frog in the family Dendrobatidae. It is endemic to Colombia where it is only known from its type locality, Ituango, on the Cordillera Occidental in the northern Antioquia Department. It might be conspecific with Colostethus fraterdanieli. Its natural habitats are cloud forests where it can be found in leaf-litter near streams.
Pristimantis johannesdei is a species of frog in the family Craugastoridae. Its common name is Urrao robber frog.

It is endemic to Colombia where it is only from its type locality, Pan de Azúcar, Cordillera Central, in the Antioquia Department. Its natural habitat is tropical cloud forest. It is a rare species threatened by habitat loss; the habitat at the type locality has badly suffered from human settlement and the collection of firewood.
