Hyalinobatrachinae is a subfamily of glass frogs (family Centrolenidae) that was established in 2009.[1][2] They are found in the Americas from Mexico south to southeastern Brazil and Argentina.[1]

The subfamily contains 32 species in two genera:[1]

  • Celsiella Guayasamin, Castroviejo-Fisher, Trueb, Ayarzagüena, Rada, and Vilà, 2009 (2 species)
  • Hyalinobatrachium Ruiz-Carranza and Lynch, 1991 (30 species)

AmphibiaWeb gives a slightly higher species count as it includes two additional Hyalinobatrachium species[2] that are placed in synonymy in the Amphibian Species of the World.
