Six species of frogs from Haiti have been rediscovered during the "search for lost frogs" campaign, bringing the total number of species rediscovered to 9. Some of the frogs haven't been seen for nearly 20 years: http://cosmiclog.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2011/01/12/5824173-froggy-finds-raise-hopes-for-haiti

They are:

The Hispaniolan Ventriloquial Frog (last seen in 1991)
The La Hotte Glanded Frog (last seen slightly >1990)
The Macaya Breast-spot Frog (last seen in 1991)
Mozart's Frog (last seen in 1991)
The Hispaniolian Crowned Frog (last seen in 1991)
The Macaya Burrowing Frog (last seen in 1996)

But they failed to find the species that they were actually looking for: the La Selle Grass Frog (last seen in 1985).
