Charadrahyla is a genus of frogs in the family Hylidae. It is endemic to tropical southern Mexico. The generic name was derived from Greek charadra ("ravine") and Hyla, in reference to the habits of these frogs. Accordingly, common name ravine treefrogs has been coined for the genus.

==Taxonomy and systematics== This genus was erected in 2005 following a major revision of the Hylidae. It corresponds to the former Hyla taeniopus group as defined by William E. Duellman in 1970. The genus was originally diagnosed using molecular markers; no morphological synapomorphies supporting the new genus could be identified. The sister taxon of Charadrahyla is Megastomatohyla.
