Hyalinobatrachium aureoguttatum, also known as the Atrato Glass Frog[3] and Sun Glassfrog,[4] is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae. It is found in northern Ecuador (Esmeraldas and Imbabura Provinces), Pacific lowlands and western slopes of the Cordillera Occidental in Colombia, and eastern Panama (Darién Province).[2][5][6][7] It occurs from near sea level to 1,560 m (5,120 ft) asl.[1][2]

Males measure 20–24 mm (0.79–0.94 in) and females 23–24 mm (0.91–0.94 in) in snout–vent length. They are yellow-green dorsally, with numerous small brown and larger, more distinct creamy yellow spots. There is a diffuse green middorsal stripe. The ventral surface is transparent.[6][7]
