Hyalinobatrachium chirripoi (Taylor 1958, 59)

Hyalinobatrachium crybetes View in CoL (E) (McCranie & Wilson 1997, 13). Cisneros-Heredia & McDiarmid (2007) synonymized this species with H. colymbiphyllum View in CoL (Taylor 1949 [262]), but without examining specimens of H. crybetes View in CoL . Cisneros-Heredia & McDiarmid (2007) based their decision on the fact that two important diagnostic characters used by McCranie & Wilson are known to occur separately in some populations of the closely related H. fleischmanni View in CoL . However, Cisneros-Heredia & McDiarmid (2007) did not mention that both of those characters have apparently not been previously reported in the same specimens and that they occur sympatrically with H. fleischmanni View in CoL . Tissues are needed from H. crybetes View in CoL for molecular studies. Unfortunately, two attempts (August 1997, July 2010) to collect new specimens were aborted because of heavy late afternoon rainfalls that made crossing the river in the vicinity of the type locality too dangerous. I continue to recognize H. crybetes View in CoL as a distinct species until tissues can be studied. In addition, genetic and call data of H. cardiacalyptum McCranie & Wilson View in CoL (1997 [p. 11]), which was synonymized with H. chirripoi View in CoL by Cisneros-Heredia & McDiarmid (2007), are available for comparison with H. chirripoi View in CoL should those data become available from Costa Rican populations of that species.
