The two species in this genus were previously placed in the Agalychnis genus but were first highlighted as being separate in 2003 http www.biolog e.leeds.ac.uk Biolog e uploads chriskerfoot.pdf . The genus is also separated from the genus Agalychnis by several distinctive morphological characteristics, including having two colours in the eye, both grey and yellow, and by lacking the reticulated membrane that covers the eye in the genus Agalychnis . Further characteristics include an extended calcar and fringes on the leg of Cruziohyla craspedopus . The range of Cruziohyla calcarifer extends through Central America into northern South America, whereas Cruziohyla craspedopus is found only in Amazonia.

The Latidae are a family of perch like fishes found in Africa and the Indian Ocean Indian and Pacific Ocean Pacific Oceans. The family, previously classified subfamily Latinae in family Centropomidae , was raised to family status in 2004 after a cladistics cladistic analysis showed the original Centropomidae was paraphyly paraphyletic . Many species in this family are important food fishes and some have been introduced outside their native ranges to provide fishing stocks. The freshwater Nile perch , a fierce predator, has become infamous, as its introduction into Lake Victoria in the 1960s has wrought devastation on the native fishes of the lake, causing the extinction of many.
