Teratohyla
Teratohyla is a small genus of glassfrogs in the subfamily Centroleninae. The genus was for a while included in Centrolenella and then Cochranella, but it was resurrected in 2009. These frogs are distributed from lowlands of Central America from Honduras southwards to Pacific and Amazonian wet tropical lowlands of South America.[1]

gollark: Also, whites have that ward BSA, which can help if you have a few gazillion of them.
gollark: Well, I know that *now*.
gollark: I had one egg die from overhatcherying, so I just started only putting them in after about a day or so.
gollark: Why do you need a CB red?
gollark: I'm probably diverting views from eggs more in need, slightly, but it means that they basically always hatch.
