Eleutherodactylus counouspeus is a species of frog in the Eleutherodactylidae family endemic to the Massif de la Hotte, Haiti.[2] Its natural habitats are limestone caves and crevices in closed, humid forest at elevations of 300–760 m (980–2,490 ft) asl. It is a moderately common species but threatened by habitat loss. The species occurs in the Pic Macaya National Park, but there is no active management for conservation, and habitat loss continues in the park.[1]
