Lynchius simmonsi, also known as Simmons' big-headed frog, is a frog species in the family Strabomantidae. It is endemic to southern Ecuador where it is known from the type locality in the Cordillera del Cóndor, Morona-Santiago Province as well as from the adjacent Zamora-Chinchipe Province. Its natural habitat is subtropical old-growth forest. The type series was collected by day on the forest floor. The area was mined during the Cenepa War in 1995, and has consequently seen little human activity, although this may change through a proposed road.
Oreobates pereger, also known as the Ayacucho Andes frog, is a species of frog in the family Strabomantidae. It is endemic to Peru where it is known from the eastern slopes of the Cordillera Oriental and Cordillera Vilcabamba mountain ranges.
The Strabomantidae, sometimes called cloud forest landfrogs, are a family of frogs native to South America. These frogs lack a free-living larval stage and hatch directly into miniature "froglets". This family includes Pristimantis, the most speciose genus of any vertebrate. Based on molecular dating, the Holoadeninae in particular appears to have originated in the Eocene. The Oligocene-Miocene transition was also found to be important to their biogeographical history. However, the lack of Holoadeninae fossils and limited nucleotide data ambiguates the results, by the authors' admission.
Bryophryne is a genus of frogs in the family Strabomantidae. These frogs are endemic to south-eastern Peru in the Cusco Region, with an undescribed species from the Puno Region. Their range is separated from that of Phrynopus by the Apurímac River valley.
