Bokermannohyla izecksohni is a medium-size hylid frog (about 45 mm in snout-vent length) described by Jim and Caramaschi (1979). Since its description it has never been found anywhere but the type locality: a small remnant of Mesophytic Semideciduos Forest (22°53'34" S, 48°29'13" W, approximately 900m a.s.l.), in Rubiao Junior, municipality of Botucatu, state of Sao Paulo, southeastern Brazil (Jim and Caramaschi 1979). For this reason, it has been considered critically endangered in the official Brazilian red-list (Haddad 2005). Males of this species were considered voiceless as they do not have vocal sacs (Jim and Caramaschi, 1979); however, the distress call has been recently recorded (L. F. Toledo, unpubl. data).
