status

 

Pristimantis chiastonotus (Lynch & Hoogmoed, 1977)

TYPE LOCALITY. — Suriname, Brownsberg.

DISTRIBUTION. — Eastern Guiana Shield: Brazil Amapá, French Guiana, Suriname and Brazil Northern Pará.

TAXONOMIC REMARKS. — This GS endemic displays a marked genetic structure ( Fouquet et al. 2012) and probably harbours more than a single species. Until further research, we consider that the population of the Mitaraka massif belongs to the nominal species.

HABITAT IN MITARAKA. — It was found throughout the terra firme of the study area generally in small patches associated with disturbance due to fallen trees. Males call at dusk from low elevation in dense undergrowth vegetation.

MATERIAL EXAMINED. — La Planète Revisitée Guyane 2015, MNHN-PNI, APA973-1: AF2737 (♂); AF2788 (♂) .
