The mimic tree frog ("Hyla" imitator) is a species of frog in the family Hylidae that is endemic to the central Amazon of Brazil. The species is virtually unknown. The genus format, as used by the American Museum of Natural History's Amphibian Species of the World, indicates that while this species is temporarily kept in Hyla , it belongs elsewhere and will be reassigned pending a taxonomic resolution.

The California tree frog or California chorus frog is a "true" tree frog from southern California (USA) and Baja California (Mexico). Until recently, the California tree frog was classified in the genus Hyla.
The canyon tree frog is a species of tree frog native to the rocky plateau areas of southern United States, primarily in New Mexico and Arizona, but it also ranges to Utah, Texas, and Colorado, and as far south as the Mexican states of Michoacán, México, Guanajuato, Guerrero, and Oaxaca.
Calamita melanorabdotus is a possible species of frog reported from Brazil in 1799. A 19th century treatise considered it to be a junior synonym of Hyla lactea, but it is now considered a nomen dubium.
Dendropsophus meridianus is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. It is endemic to southeastern Brazil.
Hyla auraria is a scientific name used by Wilhelm Peters to describe a species of frog in 1873 based on material that presumably originated from South America. The status of this name placed in the subfamily Hylinae is unclear. The holotype still exists and is in good condition but faded, and it has not been possible to relate it to known species or genera of frogs. Consequently, Hyla auraria is considered a nomen dubium.
The common Chinese tree frog, also known under common names common Chinese treetoad and Chinese tree toad, is a species of frog in the family Hylidae found in southeastern and eastern China and in Taiwan. There is also one record from Vietnam but it is uncertain whether it really represents this species or Hyla annectans.
Dryophytes eximius, commonly known as the mountain tree frog, is a species of frog in the family Hylidae endemic to Mexico. Its natural habitats are mesquite grasslands, scrub forests, and pine-oak forests. It is a widely distributed species that faces no major threats.
Hyla sanchiangensis is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. It is endemic to central and southern China and known from Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi, Guizhou, Anhui, Zhejiang, Hunan, Hubei, and Jiangxi provinces. The type locality is "San Chiang" in what at present is the Wuyishan City. The type series was collected by Clifford H. Pope during the Third Asiatic Expedition of the American Museum of Natural History in 1926, and described in 1929, along with three other new amphibian species.
Hyla savignyi, also known as the Savigny's treefrog, lemon-yellow tree frog, and Middle East tree frog, is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. The species is endemic to the Middle East, where it has been declared an endangered species.
Annam tree frog, also known as the South China tree toad, is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. It is found in southern China, Vietnam, and Laos. The Hainan tree toad from Hainan Island is treated as a subspecies.
Hyla surinamensis is a species of frog that was described by Francois-Marie Daudin based on an illustration of a frog from "Suriname". Probably depicting some species in the treefrog subfamily Hylinae, it is considered a nomen dubium.
The Wotjulum frog is a species of frog in the subfamily Pelodryadinae. Its habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forests, subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, subtropical or tropical swamps, rivers, intermittent rivers, swamps, freshwater lakes, freshwater marshes, intermittent freshwater marshes, and rocky areas.
The cloud forest tree frog is a species of frog in the family Hylidae endemic to Mexico. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forests and rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Sarcohyla cyclada is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. It is endemic to the Sierra Madre de Oaxaca of Mexico.
"Hyla" nicefori also known as the Colombian backpack frog, is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. It is endemic to the border region between Boyacá and Casanare in Colombia and only known from the holotype. The name format, as used by the American Museum of Natural History's Amphibian Species of the World, indicates that while this species is temporarily kept in the hylid type genus Hyla, it belongs elsewhere in the family and will be reassigned pending a taxonomic resolution. It was originally placed in Cryptobatrachus, but a later study revealed a number morphological differences showing that it is not in family Hemiphractidae, instead pointing to it being a hylid frog, perhaps Hyloscirtus.
The common green frog is a frog species of in the true frog family Ranidae; some sources still use the old name Rana erythraea. It lives in Southeast Asia and is also known as green paddy frog, red-eared frog or leaf frog. The last name, however, commonly refers to the Neotropical tree frogs which make up the subfamily Phyllomedusinae. These are not closely related to H. erythraea, belonging to family Hylidae instead.
Hyla perrini, also known as Perrin's tree frog or Po's tree toad, is a species of frog in the family Hylidae. It is endemic to Europe. It is known from the Po Plain in northern Italy, and in adjacent Switzerland (Ticino) and Slovenia.
