Nymphargus cariticommatus is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae. It is endemic to the southern Amazonian slopes of the Cordillera Oriental in Ecuador. [2] Its natural habitats are old-growth cloud forests. It is threatened by habitat loss due to agricultural development and logging. [1]
Nymphargus grandisonae is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae. It is found in Andes of Colombia and Ecuador. Its natural habitat is tropical moist montane forest ; larvae develop in streams and still-water pools. Its habitat is threatened by habitat loss, introduced fish, and agricultural pollution, but it is still a common species not considered threatened by the IUCN.
Nymphargus mariae, commonly known as Maria's giant glass frog, is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae. It is found in the cloud forests of the Serranía de Sira, Huánuco, Peru and in Ecuador. A population endemic to Ecuador was previously considered to be a distinct species, Nymphargus puyoensis, but is now classified as a junior synonym.
Nymphargus anomalus is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae. It is endemic to Ecuador and occurs on the Amazonian slopes of the Ecuadorian Andes in the Napo Province. Common name Napo Cochran frog has been coined for it.
Nymphargus chami is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae, formerly placed in Cochranella. It is endemic to Colombia where it occurs on the Cordillera Occidental in the Antioquia and Risaralda departments.
Nymphargus chancas is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae. Until recently it was only known from its type locality in the Lamas Province in Peru; however, it is now known to occur more widely in the northern San Martín Region of Peru, extending into the Cordillera del Cóndor in Zamora-Chinchipe Province, Ecuador.
Nymphargus cochranae is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae. It is found in the lower Amazonian slopes of the Cordillera Occidental of Ecuador and adjacent Colombia, though the Colombian records require confirmation.
Nymphargus cristinae is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae, formerly placed in Cochranella. It is endemic to Colombia where it is only known near its type locality on the western slope of the Cordillera Occidental in Urrao, Antioquia. Its natural habitat is sub-Andean primary forest. It occurs on vegetation next to streams with canopy cover over the stream. Its conservation status is unclear but habitat degradation and loss caused by cattle raising, timber extraction, and cultivation of illegal crops are major threats.
Nymphargus garciae is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae, formerly placed in Cochranella. It is endemic to the eastern slopes of the Cordillera Central, Colombia. Its natural habitat is vegetation alongside streams in sub-Andean and Andean forests. It requires gallery forest for reproduction, and is therefore very sensitive to disturbance of this kind of habitat. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Nymphargus griffithsi is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae. It is found in Colombia and Ecuador. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forests and rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Nymphargus luminosus is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae, formerly placed in Cochranella. It is endemic to Colombia. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forests and rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Nymphargus megacheirus is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae, formerly placed in Cochranella. It is found in Colombia and Ecuador. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forests and rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Nymphargus nephelophila is a species of frogs in the family Centrolenidae, formerly placed in Cochranella. It is endemic to the Caquetá Department, Colombia, where it is known from the eastern versant of the Cordillera Oriental near Florencia. Its natural habitat is vegetation near streams in cloud forest, including secondary forest. Habitat loss is a threat to this species, but it is too little known to assess its conservation status.
Nymphargus ocellatus is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae. It is endemic to the Amazonian slopes of Andes in Peru. Its natural habitats are tropical moist montane forests ; larvae develop in streams. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Nymphargus oreonympha is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae, formerly placed in Cochranella. It is endemic to Colombia where it occurs on the Cordillera Oriental in Florencia, the Caquetá Department. Its natural habitat is cloud forest, including secondary forest, where it occurs on vegetation near streams. Its conservation status is unclear.
Nymphargus posadae is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae, formerly placed in Cochranella. It inhabits the eastern slopes of the Andes of Colombia, Ecuador, and northeastern Peru. It is reasonably common in Colombia but rare in Ecuador.
Nymphargus prasinus is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae, formerly placed in the genus Cochranella. It is endemic to Colombia. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, subtropical or tropical moist montane forests, and rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Nymphargus rosada is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae, formerly placed in Cochranella. It is endemic to Colombia where it is known from the eastern slopes of the Cordillera Central. Its natural habitats are sub-Andean forests alongside streams. It is threatened by habitat fragmentation and loss caused by agricultural expansion, timber extraction, and water pollution.
Nymphargus ruizi is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae, formerly placed in Cochranella. It is endemic to Colombia where it is known from the western slopes of the Cordillera Occidental and the eastern slopes of the Farallones de Cali. Its natural habitats are sub-Andean forests next to streams. It is threatened by habitat loss caused by agricultural expansion, logging, human settlement, and water pollution.
Nymphargus siren is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae, formerly placed in Cochranella. It is found in Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru. Its natural habitats are pre-montane forests near streams. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Nymphargus spilotus is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae, formerly placed in Cochranella. It is endemic to Colombia where it occurs on the Cordillera Central in Samaná, the Caldas Department. Its natural habitat is sub-Andean forest where it occurs on vegetation alongside streams. Its conservation status is unclear.
