A new species of Oedipina (subgenus Oedopinola) is described from a cloud forest locality in northwestern Honduras. The new species appears most closely related to Oedopinola gephyra, a cloud forest species from north-central Honduras. It differs from O. gephyra in having a larger size, a jet-black coloration, a row of white flecks ventrolaterally on the body in life, and less interdigital webbing on the hind limbs.
