The Mixteca cloud-forest tree frog (Charadrahyla sakbah) is a frog that lives in Mexico. Scientists have seen it in exactly one place: 1390 meters above sea level in the western Sierra Madre del Sur mountains, in Oaxaca.[2][3][1]

The adult male frog is 81.15-85.75 mm long from nose to rear end and the adult female frog is 67.91-73.21 mm long. They have a very large amount of webbed skin between their toes. Only frogs from this part of the world have webbing like this.[4]
