The Jinfo Mountain salamander (Pseudohynobius jinfo) is a species of salamander in the family Hynobiidae endemic to China, known only from Nanchuan District in Chongqing (formerly Sichuan).
Its type locality is a spring-fed pond on Mount Jinfo.
P. jinfo specimens from Nanchuan were first assumed to be yellow-spotted salamanders (P. flavomaculatus), but genetic methods, and later on, discovery of adult salamanders, allowed them to be identified as a new species.
