The chorus frogs (Pseudacris) are a genus of frogs in the Hylidae family, and are found in North America east of the Rocky Mountains from Hudson Bay to the Gulf of Mexico.

The name of the genus comes from the Greek pseudes (false) and akris (locust), probably a reference to the repeated rasping trill of most chorus frogs, which is similar to that of the insect.
