Dendropsophus arndti is a species of "clown tree frogs" described in 2017 that lives in the Amazon basin of Bolivia, Peru, and Brazil. The specific name arndti honors professor Rudolf G. Arndt, in recognition of his financial support for research and nature conservation. Accordingly, common name Arndts' treefrog has been coined for it.
