''Craugastor augusti'' is a species of frog in the Craugastoridae family found in Mexico and the southern United States. It is known by various common names but most commonly as the barking frog (also common robber frog, cliff frog). The nominal species likely includes more than one species, sometimes described as subspecies such as the common barking frog (''Craugastor augusti augusti''), western barking frog (''Craugastor augusti cactorum''), and eastern barking frog (''Craugastor augusti latrans''). The epithet ''augusti'' is in honor of renowned French zoologist Auguste Duméril. It is called the ''barking frog'' because its call sounds like the barking of a small dog, although vocalizations vary by area. It is an abundant species in Mexico but apparently rare in the United States.〔 However, they are very difficult to detect unless they are calling, which only occurs during few nights after rains.〔 ==Description== Adult ''Craugastor augusti'' measure 47–94 mm. They have a characteristic fold of skin across the back of the head as well as well-developed tubercles on their feet. Colouration is sexually dimorphic.〔
