Proceratophrys moehringi is a species of frog in the family Odontophrynidae. It is endemic to Brazil. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest and rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.
The conservation status of a group of organisms indicates whether the group still exists and how likely the group is to become extinct in the near future. Many factors are taken into account when assessing conservation status: not simply the number of individuals remaining, but the overall increase or decrease in the population over time, breeding success rates, and known threats. Various systems of conservation status are in use at international, multi-country, national and local levels, as well as for consumer use such as sustainable seafood advisory lists and certification. The two international systems are by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) and The Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES).
Proceratophrys moratoi is a species of frog in the family Odontophrynidae. It is endemic to the São Paulo state, Brazil. Its local name is botucatu escuerzo.
Proceratophrys salvatori is a species of frog in the family Odontophrynidae. It is endemic to Brazil and known from eastern Goiás and the Federal District. Its natural habitat is Cerrado savanna, where it occurs on the ground near waterbodies. The tadpoles develop in small temporary streams. It is threatened by habitat loss caused by agricultural development and fires.
Proceratophrys appendiculata is a species of frog in the family Odontophrynidae. It is endemic to Brazil. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest, subtropical or tropical moist montane forest, and rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Proceratophrys avelinoi is a species of frog in the family Odontophrynidae. It is found in Argentina, Brazil, and possibly Paraguay. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest, rivers, intermittent rivers, pastureland, and heavily degraded former forest. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Proceratophrys bigibbosa is a species of frog in the family Odontophrynidae. It is found in the Misiones Province in the northeastern Argentina and in Rio Grande do Sul and Santa Catarina in southern Brazil; its range might extend into the adjacent Paraguay. Common names Peters' smooth horned frog and Cristina's smooth horned frog have been coined for it.
Proceratophrys boiei, commonly known as Boie's frog, is a species of frog in the family Odontophrynidae. It is endemic to eastern and southeastern Brazil. This common frog is found in primary and secondary forest, on the forest edge, and in degraded areas near forest. This species is present in the illegal pet trade. Its habitat is subject to loss caused by agriculture, wood plantations, livestock grazing, clear-cutting, human settlement and tourism. The specific name boiei was given in honour of German zoologist Heinrich Boie or his brother Friedrich Boie.
Proceratophrys brauni is a species of frog in the family Odontophrynidae. It is endemic to South Brazil and has been recorded in the Paraná, Santa Catarina, and Rio Grande do Sul states. The specific name brauni honors Pedro Canisio Braun, a Brazilian herpetologist. Common name horn toad has been coined for this species.
Proceratophrys concavitympanum is a species of frog in the family Odontophrynidae. It is endemic to Brazil and known from Rondônia, northwestern Mato Grosso, Pará, and Tocantins. It is the only Proceratophrys found in the Amazon rainforest.
Proceratophrys cristiceps is a species of frog in the family Odontophrynidae. It is endemic to northeastern Brazil and occurs in the coastal region from the Bay of All Saints in central Bahia northward to the state of Rio Grande do Norte. Common name Muller's smooth horned frog has been proposed for it.
Proceratophrys cururu is a species of frog in the family Odontophrynidae. It is endemic to Brazil. Its natural habitats are moist savanna, subtropical or tropical moist shrubland, rivers, and intermittent rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Proceratophrys goyana is a species of frog in the family Odontophrynidae. It is endemic to Brazil. Its natural habitats are moist savanna, subtropical or tropical moist shrubland, subtropical or tropical seasonally wet or flooded lowland grassland, subtropical or tropical high-altitude grassland, rivers, and intermittent rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.

Proceratophrys schirchi is a species of frog in the family Odontophrynidae. It is endemic to eastern Brazil and occurs in southeastern Bahia, Espírito Santo, northeastern Minas Gerais, and Rio de Janeiro states. The specific name schirchi honours Paulo F. Schirch, a Brazilian zoologist who collected the type series. Common names Santo smooth horned frog and Brazilian smooth horned frog can refer to this species, the latter specifically referring to Proceratophrys precrenulata that is now considered a junior synonym only.
Proceratophrys subguttata is a species of frog in the family Odontophrynidae. It is endemic to Brazil. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest and rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Scythrophrys is a genus of frogs in the family Leptodactylidae. It is monotypic, being represented by the single species, Scythrophrys sawayae, commonly known as the Banhado frog, after its type locality. It is endemic to Serra do Mar in Paraná and Santa Catarina states, south-eastern Brazil. Its natural habitats are secondary and old growth forests; reproduction takes place in temporary pools. Its populations are scattered but it is locally common. It is threatened by habitat loss. This species was first described in 1953 by the American herpetologist Doris Mable Cochran whose research was focused on the herpetofauna of the West Indies and South America.
Stereocyclops parkeri is a species of frog in the family Microhylidae. It is endemic to southeastern Brazil and known from the southwestern part of the state of Rio de Janeiro and from Ilha de São Sebastião ("Ilhabela"), São Paulo state.
