Crossodactylus boulengeri is a species of frog in the family Hylodidae. It lives in the Serra do Mar mountain range in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro in Brazil.[1][2]

For some time, scientists considered this frog a junior synonym of Crossodactylus dispar. In 2014, a new study confirmed that they are truly two different species.[3]
