''Euparkerella'' is a genus of craugastorid frogs. The common name coined for them is Guanabara frogs. They are endemic to Atlantic coastal forests in the sourtheastern Brazilian states Espírito Santo and Rio de Janeiro. The name ''Euparkerella'' honours H. W. Parker, a herpetologist who named the type species, with the Greek prefix ''eu'' meaning true and suffix ''ella'', a diminutive form. ==Taxonomy== The phylogenetic position of ''Euparkerella'' is uncertain as they have not been included in any molecular phylogeny. On the basis of their morphological similarity to ''Holoaden'', they are provisionally placed in subfamily Holoadeninae.〔〔 The AmphibiaWeb keeps Holoadeninae, and consequently ''Euparkerella'', in Strabomantidae, a family no longer recognized by the Amphibian Species of the World. ''Euparkerella'' species are traditionally distinguished using morphological traits. However, these species do not align well with genetically distinct units, with the latter suggesting higher diversity than the former, especially within ''Euparkerella brasiliensis'' and ''Euparkerella cochranae''. It remains unresolved whether the genetically distinct units qualify as different species.
