Anomaloglossus verbeeksnyderorum Barrio-Amorós, Santos and Jovanovic, 2010 *

Holotype: MHNLS 19649 .

Type locality: “ Tobogán de la Selva, Municipio Atures, Estado Amazonas, Venezuela, 5°23’N, 67°34’W, 56 m asl., 5.4109°N, 67.6197°W.”

Distribution: Region 5. Tobogán de la Selva and nearby granitic domes around Puerto Ayacucho area in NW Amazonas State; also at Serranía de los Pijiguaos, Bolívar State ( Camargo et al. 2014).

Remarks: Kok et al. (2012) showed that Anomaloglossus verbeeksnyderorum and A. wothuja are not genetically differentiated. There are subtle morphological differences among these species (noted in Barrio-Amorós et al. 2011), but more detailed work is necessary to assess its proper identity.
