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, but was transferred back to Plethodontohyla after review of its taxonomic status in early 2018, along with the newly resurrected Plethodontohyla laevis. In addition, the species Rhombophryne matavy was erroneously transferred to Plethodontohyla in 2016 based on a misidentified DNA sequence, and was later transferred back to Rhombophryne.
