Rhinella nattereri (Bokermann 1967)

Holotype: MZUSP 73715 .

Type locality: Cachoeira Uranduique, Mau River, Roraima, Brazil.

Distribution: Region 5. Brazil, Guyana, and Venezuela. In Venezuela this species is known only from the Gran Sabana Region in Bolívar State ( Narvaes and Rodrigues 2009).

Remarks: A member of the Rhinella granulosa species group; little is known about this species in Venezuela. Pereyra et al. (2016) could not obtain genetic samples to test its phylogenetic relationships. The morphological characteristics of this form should be more carefully compared with R. beebei and R. merianae to determine and support species-level validity.
