Cochranella is a genus of glass frogs, characterized by lacking humeral spines in males, and having a lobed liver. About one-third of the species formerly placed in Cochranella were placed into the genus Nymphargus.^[1]

Delimitation against Centrolene is not entirely resolved to satisfaction, and several species formerly in Hyalinobatrachium are now placed here.

Selected species

Though this list is reasonably complete^{[verification needed]}, new species are described on a continuous basis and may be missing.
