# Triprion

Triprion is a genus of frogs (the shovel-headed tree frogs) in the family Hylidae found in the Pacific lowlands of Mexico, the Yucatán Peninsula, and Guatemala. These frogs hide in tree-holes and plug the entrance with their strange-looking, bony heads.

* Triprion petasatus (Cope, 1865) - Yucatán shovel-headed tree frog
* Triprion spatulatus Günther, 1882 - Mexican shovel-headed tree frog
* Triprion spinosus (Steindachner, 1864) - Spiny-headed tree frog
