The false green robber frog (Eleutherodactylus chlorophenax) is a species of frog in the Eleutherodactylidae family endemic to the Massif de la Hotte, southwestern Haiti. The holotype, an adult male, measured 59 mm (2.3 in) in snout–vent length.

The species' natural habitats are upland hardwood forests and ravine pinelands. The range of this species is suffering from severe habitat destruction, primarily due to logging for charcoal production by local people and by slash-and-burn agriculture. Its range overlaps with the Pic Macaya National Park, but the park is not managed for conservation.
