Atelopus carbonerensis, also known as the Venezuelan yellow frog and La Carbonera stubfoot toad (in Spanish: ranita amarilla de La Carbonera), is a species of toad in the family Bufonidae. It is endemic to the Mérida Andes of Venezuela. Following an observation in 1998, it was feared extinct for nearly two decades until a single individual was sighted in 2014, followed by an observation of a mating pair in 2021.
