They are sometimes known under common name rain frogs.[1][2] Formerly a subfamily Eleutherodactylinae of the family Leptodactylidae, it was raised to the family status following a major revision of New World direct-developing frogs in 2008.[1][1] As currently defined, the family has more than 200 species (as of 2014, 206[1] or 207[2] species). Eleutherodactylid frogs vary considerably in size, from the minuscule Eleutherodactylus iberia (female snout–vent length {{convert|10.5|mm|abbr=on}}) to the relative giant Eleutherodactylus inoptatus (female snout–vent length {{convert|88|mm|abbr=on}}).[2] Except for the ovoviviparous Eleutherodactylus jasperi, these frogs have direct development: no free-living tadpole stage exists; instead, eggs develop directly into small froglets.[1] Subfamilies and generaThe two subfamilies and four genera are:[2][3]
