Sign in to saveBromeliohyla, sometimes known as the bromeliad treefrogs, is a genus of frogs in the family Hylidae. This genus was erected in 2022 following a major revision of the Hylidae. The two species originally assigned to this genus were previously placed in the genus Hyla. Bromeliohyla corresponds to the former Hyla bromeliacea species group identified in a genetic study by Duellman (1970). Species in this genus are found in tropical southern Mexico, Belize, Guatemala, and northern Honduras.
