Chiasmocleis aff. haddadi Peloso, Sturaro, Forlani, Gaucher, Motta & Wheeler, 2014

( Fig. 2C )

TYPE LOCALITY. — French Guiana, Kotika Montains.

DISTRIBUTION. — Easternmost part of the Guiana Shield.

TAXONOMIC REMARKS. — The population of the Mitaraka massif belongs to an undescribed species related to C. haddadi . This last species has been reported from southern French Guiana and Brazil Amapá and even later from Sipaliwini ( Fouquet et al. 2015b). However, the records from Amapá, southern French Guiana and this new record from Mitaraka correspond to a different species clearly distinct morphologically and acoustically from C. haddadi . In Mitaraka, we only found juveniles, and identification was confirmed using molecular data (AF, pers. obs.).

HABITAT IN MITARAKA. — Two juveniles were collected from the leaf litter near an uncollected calling male.

MATERIAL EXAMINED. — La Planète Revisitée Guyane 2015, MNHN-PNI, APA973-1: AF2880 (J); AF3296 (J) .
