Stefania satelles is a species of frog in the family Hemiphractidae. It is endemic to Venezuela.
This is a nocturnal frog found on tepuis in Canaima National Park. Its natural habitat is open, rocky surfaces, and crevices and depressions close to watercourses. The species has a disjunct distribution. It occurs on Aprada-tepui (the type locality), Angasima-tepui and Upuigma-tepui. It is classed as a near-threatened species because of the restricted area of the summits where it lives.
