Pseudophryne is a genus of small Myobatrachid frogs. All of these frogs are small terrestrial frogs, and as such, most species are commonly called toadlets (pseudo- meaning deceptive, phryne meaning toad).

The tadpoles develop within the eggs, and once they reach hatching size, will become dormant.

There are thirteen species from the Pseudophryne genus:
