The Tlaloc's leopard frog (Lithobates tlaloci), or rana de Tláloc in Spanish, is a species of frog in the Ranidae family endemic to the Valley of Mexico. It is most likely extinct.
Tlaloc's leopard frog inhabited wetland areas in the surroundings of southern Mexico City. The suitable habitat disappeared because of rapid urbanization.
