Plectrohyla guatemalensis Group

DIAGNOSIS: This group is diagnosed by 34 transformations in nuclear and mitochondrial proteins and ribosomal genes. See appendix 5 for a complete list of these transformations. Possible morphological synapomorphies of this species group are bifurcate alary process of the premaxilla; sphenethmoid with anterior part ossified; frontoparietals abbuting posteriorly, exposing only small part of the frontoparietal fontanelle; humerus having well­developed flanges; hypertrophied forearm; prepollex enlarged and ossified in both sexes; prepollex truncate; and absence of lateral labial folds in larvae (Duellman and Campbell, 1992; Duellman, 2001).
