The canyon tree frog (Dryophytes arenicolor) is a species of tree frog native to the rocky plateau areas of southern United States, primarily in New Mexico and Arizona, but it also ranges to Utah, Texas, and Colorado, and as far south as the Mexican states of Michoacán, México, Guanajuato, Guerrero, and Oaxaca.

[2] Canyon tree frogs grow to 5.0–5.5 cm (2.0–2.2 in) in length, and are typically brown, grey-brown, or grey-green in color, often with darker-colored blotching.

They can vary considerably, but usually match the soil or rock coloration of their native habitats to serve as camouflage.

Most have bright yellow in their groin regions, and faded banding on their legs.

They are typically found in semiarid, rocky habitats near a permanent water source.
