The Cuban long-nosed toad or Stejneger's Caribbean toad (Peltophryne longinasus) is a species of toad in the family Bufonidae. It is endemic to Cuba and only known from three widely separated populations. Its natural habitats are upland pinewoods and mesic broadleaf forests. It is always found by streams. It is threatened by habitat loss caused by logging, charcoaling, fires, and agricultural expansion.
