The Santa Barbara tree frog or Alvarenga's tree frog ("Bokermannohyla alvarengai") is a frog that lives in Brazil. It lives in the Serra do Espinhaço mountains.

The male frogs also have larger, stronger front legs and larger spines. Scientists say that when male frogs are larger than female frogs, it is because the male frogs fight each other.

But few teams of scientists have watched and written science papers about Santa Barbara tree frogs. They do not know for sure if this is why the male frogs are larger.
