The treefrogs (Hylidae) make up one of the most species-rich families of amphibians. With 885 species currently described, they contain >13% of all amphibian species. In recent years, there has been considerable progress in resolving hylid phylogeny. However, the most comprehensive phylogeny to date (Wiens et al., 2006) included only 292 species, was based only on parsimony, provided only poor support for most higher-level relationships, and conflicted with previous hypotheses in several parts (including the monophyly and relationships of major clades of Hylinae). Here, we present an expanded phylogeny for hylid frogs, including data for 362 hylid taxa for up to 11 genes (4 mitochondrial, 7 nuclear), including 70 additional taxa and >270 sequences not included in the previously most comprehensive analysis. The new tree from maximum likelihood analysis is more well-resolved, strongly supported, and concordant with previous hypotheses, and provides a framework for future systematic, biogeographic, ecological, and evolutionary studies.
树蛙（雨蛙科）是两栖动物中物种最丰富的家族之一。目前已描述了 885 种，占所有两栖动物物种的>13%。近年来，在解决雨蛙科的系统发育关系方面已经取得了相当大的进展。然而，迄今为止最全面的系统发育关系（Wiens 等人，2006）仅包括 292 种，仅基于简约性，对大多数高级关系的支持很差，并且在几个部分与以前的假说相冲突（包括雨蛙亚科的主要分支的单系性和关系）。在这里，我们提出了一个扩展的雨蛙科系统发育关系，包括 362 种雨蛙科的分类群，多达 11 个基因（4 个线粒体，7 个核）的数据，包括 70 个额外的分类群和超过 270 个未包含在以前最全面分析中的序列。最大似然分析的新树更加清晰，得到了强有力的支持，与以前的假说一致，并为未来的系统学、生物地理学、生态学和进化研究提供了框架。
