Pristimantis rufioculis is a species of frog in the family Craugastoridae. It is found in the Andes of northern Peru (Cordillera Central, Cordillera del Cóndor) and adjacent Ecuador (Zamora-Chinchipe). The specific name rufioculis is derived from the Latin words rufiis, meaning red, and oculis, meaning eye—red iris is one of the distinguishing characteristics of this species. Accordingly, common name red-eyed robber frog has been proposed for this species.
