Hyloscirtus mashpi, also known as Mashpi torrenteer and Mashpi stream treefrog, is a species of frogs in the family Hylidae. It is endemic to the western slopes of the Ecuadorian Andes[1][3][4] and known from a few localities in Pichincha, Imbabura, and Esmeraldas Provinces.[1] It is named after its type locality, Mashpi Reserve.[2][4] Furthermore, the word mashpi is a Yumbo word meaning "friend of water", which agrees with the habitat requirements of this species.[2]
