Telmatobius latirostris is a species of frog in the family Telmatobiidae. It is endemic to Peru. Its natural habitats are rivers, urban areas, and irrigated land. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Telmatobius is a genus of frogs native to the Andean highlands in South America, where they are found in Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, northwestern Argentina and northern Chile. It is the only genus in the family Telmatobiidae. Some sources recognize Batrachophrynus as a valid genus distinct from Telmatobius.
Telmatobius bolivianus is a species of frog in the family Telmatobiidae. It is endemic to the Eastern Andes of Bolivia. It was formerly the most common and widespread Telmatobius of Bolivia, but has had a drastic population decline since the mid-2000s. It is an aquatic frog occurring in fast-flowing rivers and streams in cloud forest and Yungas forest. It is threatened by chytridomycosis as well as habitat loss caused by logging and agricultural expansion. Water pollution and aquaculture are also threats.
Telmatobius brevirostris is a species of frog in the family Telmatobiidae. It is endemic to Peru. Its natural habitats are moist montane forest, high-altitude shrubland, and rivers. It does not occur in cultivated areas. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Telmatobius ceiorum is a species of frog in the family Telmatobiidae, and which is endemic to Argentina. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forest and rivers, and it is threatened by habitat loss.
Telmatobius dankoi, also known as the Loa water frog, is a species of critically endangered aquatic frog in the family Telmatobiidae. It is endemic to Chile and is only known from its type locality near Calama, in the El Loa province. Only 14 individuals are known from captivity following the destruction of its habitat prior to 2019, so it may already be extinct in the wild. However, it is doubtfully distinct from Telmatobius halli and thus may not be a distinct species.
Telmatobius edaphonastes is a species of frog in the family Telmatobiidae. It is endemic to Bolivia. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forest and rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Telmatobius hockingi is a species of frog in the family Telmatobiidae. It is endemic to Peru. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forest and rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Telmatobius ignavus is a species of frog in the family Telmatobiidae. It is endemic to the Cordillera de Huancabamba in the Department of Piura, Peru. Common name Piura water frog has been coined for it.
Telmatobius intermedius is a species of frog in the family Telmatobiidae. It is endemic to Peru. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical high-altitude shrubland, subtropical or tropical high-altitude grassland, and rivers.
Telmatobius laticeps is a species of frog in the family Telmatobiidae. It is endemic to Argentina. Its natural habitat is rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Telmatobius pefauri is a species of frog in the family Telmatobiidae. It is endemic to extreme northern Chile. It was already feared that this species is extinct, but recent research has suggested that the species is extant at several localities in the Arica y Parinacota Region, albeit at low numbers. Furthermore, morphological and genetic data suggest that Telmatobius zapahuirensis is a synonym of Telmatobius pefauri. Common name Arico water frog has been coined for this species.
Telmatobius peruvianus, also known as the Peru water frog, is a species of frog in the family Telmatobiidae. This semiaquatic frog is endemic to Andean highlands in southeastern Peru and far northern Chile where found in streams and small rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss, pollution, collection for human consumption and infection by chytrid fungi, and it has not been seen in Chile since 1986.
Telmatobius philippii is a species of frog in the family Telmatobiidae. It is endemic to Chile. Its natural habitat is rivers.
Telmatobius pinguiculus is a species of frog in the family Telmatobiidae. It is endemic to the Catamarca Province of Argentina. Its natural habitats are rivers located in wetlands and grasslands. Major threats to the survival of the species include pollution, loss of habitats due to human actions, and invasive species.
Telmatobius pisanoi is a species of frog in the family Telmatobiidae. It is endemic to Argentina. Its natural habitats are rivers and swampland. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Telmatobius stephani is a species of frog in the family Telmatobiidae. It is endemic to Argentina. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forest and rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Telmatobius thompsoni is a species of frog in the family Telmatobiidae. It is endemic to Peru. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical high-altitude shrubland, rivers, swampland, freshwater marshes, and intermittent freshwater marshes.
Telmatobius vellardi is a species of frog in the family Telmatobiidae. It is endemic to Ecuador.
