Dendropsophus

Dendropsophus is a genus of frogs in the family Hylidae. They live in Central and South America, from southern Mexico to northern Argentina and Uruguay. They are sometimes called Fitzinger neotropical treefrogs or yellow treefrogs

For a while, scientists decided not to use this genus.  In 2005, they started using it again after a large revision of the family Hylidae., 2005: Systematic Review of the Frog Family Hylidae, with Special Reference to Hylinae: Phylogenetic Analysis and Taxonomic Revision. Bulletin of the American Museum of Natural History, Num. 294, pp.1-240.   Some of the frogs that had been in Hyla were moved to Dendropsophus if they had 30 chromosomes.
