Hyloscirtus condor is a species of tree frog native to Ecuador. Scientists know it exclusively from the type locality in the Reserva Biológica Cerro Plateado.[1] It can be found in elevations of more than 2,300 m (7,500 ft).

The adult male frog measures 64.83–73.83 mm in snout-vent length. Hyloscirtus condor is tan with dark yellow dots around the body.[2] Like Hyloscirtus tapichalaca, the species has a thumb spine. It also has a single, small vocal sac. The iris of the eye is gold in color, with reticulations.[3]
