Chiasmocleis bicegoi, the Cecilia humming frog or Santa Cecilia humming frog, is a frog in the family Microhylidae. It is endemic to Brazil. Scientists have only collected it with certainty from its type locality, but they believe it to be more widespread.[1][2]

Scientists used to consider this frog part of Chiasmocleis albopunctata, but it was placed in its own taxon in 2018.[1]
