Schultze's stream frog (Ptychohyla macrotympanum) is a frog. It lives in Mexico and Guatemala. People have seen this frog between 700 and 1700 meters above sea level.

This frog lives in pine-oak forests with water in the air. It only lives in forests that are on mountains high above sea level. It lives in the Chiapan Highlands in Chiapas. It lives in the Sierra de Cuchumatanes in Guatemala. It lives in the Grijalva Basin, which is in Chiapas and in Guatemala.

Until 1992, scientists thought this frog was the same species as Ptychohyla euthysanota.
