Remarks.

A recently described species (Reyes-Puig et al. 2019), we recorded a male specimen (DHMECN 14437) with body size of 17.44 mm and a female specimen (DHMECN 14420) with body size of 14.92 mm, collected in the Naturetrek-Vizcaya Reserve at 2390 m elevation. These specimens correspond to the first records of the genus over 2000 m above sea level in the eastern Andean slopes of Ecuador. Both specimens were captured in pitfall traps. This species differs from its congeners by the presence of a differentiated tympanic membrane and a weakly-defined tympanic annulus, eyelids with rounded tubercles, blackish-dark brown ventral colouration scattered with little white dots and the absence of papillae at the tip of the fingers and toes, unlike Noblella colomai, N. personina, N. myermecoides, N. lochites and N. heyeri that have visible tympanic annuli and pale or colourful bellies.
