Hylophorbus infulatus is a relatively slender and long-legged frog. The holotype is an adult female measuring 37 mm (1.5 in) in snout–vent length; the maximum length is 39 mm (1.5 in) SVL. The head is narrower than the body. The eyes are relatively large. The tympanum is indistinct, as is the supratympanic fold. The fingers and toes have small, grooved discs. The back is brown with indistinct brown mottling, surrounded by two dorsolateral dark-brown bands alluded to in its specific name infulatus, which is Latin for "adorned with a band". The bands are sharply delimited towards the light gray-brown flanks and belly. The throat is heavily mottled with brown. Males have a single subgular vocal sac.^[2]
