Plethodontohyla bipunctata (Guibé, 1974)

Plethodontohyla inguinalis Boulenger, 1882
Plethodontohyla laevis (Boettger, 1913)
Plethodontohyla mihanika Vences, Raxworthy, Nussbaum, and Glaw, 2003
Plethodontohyla notosticta (Günther, 1877)

Taxonomy
The following species were formerly classed as Plethodontoyhla species but have since been moved to the genus
Rhombophryne :
The
taxon
Plethodontohyla alluaudi was moved to
Rhombophryne by Frost et al. in 2006,
[4] but was transferred back to Plethodontohyla after review of its taxonomic status in early 2018,
[3] along with the newly resurrected
Plethodontohyla laevis . In addition, the species
Rhombophryne matavy was erroneously transferred to Plethodontohyla in 2016
[5] based on a misidentified DNA sequence, and was later transferred back to Rhombophryne .
