Hylodes is a genus of frogs in the family Hylodidae.[1][2] The genus may be paraphyletic with respect to Megaelosia. The genus Hylodes is endemic to southeastern Brazil. Member species are also known commonly as the tree toads, or more ambiguously, as torrent frogs.[1] They are diurnal and usually inhabit shallow mountain streams.[3]
