Dermophis parviceps is a species of caecilian in the family Dermophiidae. It is found in Costa Rica and Panama, and possibly in Colombia, depending on the source. Common names slender caecilian and La Loma caecilian have been coined for it.
Specimens from Costa Rica measure 112–217 mm (4.4–8.5 in) in total length and have 85–102 primary and 11–26 secondary annuli; the annular grooves lack dark pigment seen in Dermophis mexicanus and Dermophis oaxacae. The body is slender. The eyes can be seen through the skin. The head is pinkish, contrasting with the purplish-gray body.
