We analyzed variation among Hylodes with nuptial tubercles using morphometrics, vocalization, and external morphology. We identified three species: Hylodes phyllodes from the Serra do Mar, State of São Paulo, and southern portion of the State of Rio de Janeiro; a new species from Ilha Grande, municipality of Angra dos Reis; and a new species from the Serra dos Órgãos, municipality of Guapimirim. The new species are both from the state of Rio de Janeiro, southeastern Brazil.
