Chlorohyla is a genus of arboreal frogs in the family Pelodryadidae. These frogs are native to eastern Australia, Papua and surrounding islands. Species in the genus were previously included within the wastebasket genus Litoria, but were separated into a new genus in 2025.[1] They are small-to-medium sized frogs, all with a uniform green colour and often brightly-coloured (red or orange) eyes.
