We investigate the role of trapped neutrinos on the composition of protoneutron stars with quark-hadron phase transitions. Trapped neutrinos shift the transition to higher baryon densities and also reduce the extent of a mixed phase in comparison to neutrino-free matter. Thus, a mixed phase of baryons and quarks is more likely to occur after a neutrino diffusion time scale of several seconds. In contrast with stars containing only nucleons and leptons, stars with quarks have larger maximum masses when neutrinos are trapped than for neutrino-free stars. Hence, black hole formation is likely delayed for the neutrino diffusion time scale when quarks are present.
