Craugastor catalinae is a species of frog in the Craugastoridae family. It is found in the Río Cotón drainage in Pacific southwestern Costa Rica and on the Pacific slopes of Volcán Barú, western Panama.[2] Its natural habitats are streams in premontane and lower montane humid forests. This species was once common in Costa Rica, but has now disappeared from much of its range; it has also declined in Panama. In addition to habitat loss, the decline is assumed to be caused by chytridiomycosis.[1]
