Centrolene lynchi, also known as Lynch's giant glass frog, Lynch's glassfrog, and the Tandayapa giant glass frog, is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae. It is found in the Risaralda Department and Nariño Department on the Cordillera Occidental of Colombia and on the western Andes in the Pichincha, Cotopaxi, and Santo Domingo de los Tsáchilas Provinces, Ecuador. It is named after John Douglas Lynch , the herpetologist who collected the first specimens of this species.
Giant by name only, these frogs are still larger than many of their relatives: males measure 23–27 mm (0.91–1.06 in) in snout–vent length and females about 25 mm (0.98 in) in snout–vent length. Dorsum is yellowish-greenish with tiny whitish tubercles and black spots.
