Resumen

Las especies actuales del género Ecnomiohyla que se han documentado en México son: Ecnomiohyla echinata and Ecnomiohyla valancifer y la nota remite a la ampliación de distribución en el ANPFF de Nahá de una especie llamada Ecnomiohyla minera que ocurre en Guatemala y Belice. Este encuentro tiene implicaciones importantes en el estudio de los anfibios en México, debido a que no solo es una ampliación de distribución, si no, es una nueva especie para México.
