Mannophryne neblina ( Test 1956) View in CoL *

Holotype: UMMZ 113001 View Materials .

Type locality: “Portachuelo Pass, Rancho Grande, Estado Aragua, Venezuela.”

Distribution: Region 2. Known only from type locality and surroundings, 900– 1,100 m asl.

Remarks: Despite numerous searches in the type locality and surroundings during recent decades, no other specimens have been found since its description. At least a local extinction is presumed. Lotzkat (2007) apparently found M. neblina at Macizo de Nirgua (Yaracuy State). However, vouchers are not mentioned and the specimens were identified by J. Manzanilla by checking photos. Considered as Critically Endangered (CR) by the current Venezuelan Red Book (La Marca 2015b).
