Hyla arboricola (common name: arboreal treefrog) is a species of frog in the Hylidae family endemic to the Sierra Madre del Sur in Guerrero state, Mexico.[2]

Hyla arboricola is a poorly known frog. It is assumed to be a montane forest species that breeds in temporary pools. It is probably impacted by habitat loss.[1]
