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.

==Taxonomy== The genus Bryophryne was erected in 2008 to accommodate two species that were in Phrynopus at that time; subfamily Holoadeninae was erected at the same time and placed in Strabomantidae.
