Open encyclopedia reference
The yellowbelly voiceless tree frog (Charadrahyla altipotens) is a species of frog in the family Hylidae endemic to Mexico.
It inhabits the Pacific slopes of the Sierra Madre del Sur in southern Oaxaca, between 1,300 and 2,000 meters elevation. It is known from two subpopulations, one near San Agustín Loxicha and the other north of the San Gabriel Mixtepec. Its extent of occurrence (EOO) is 2,240 km2, but may occur more widely than currently recorded.
It prefers rocky streams with abundant vegetation in montane pine-oak forests and cloud forests.
It is threatened by habitat loss.
