Family Centrolenidae View in CoL
The assignation of the following new species to the genus Hyalinobatrachium is not definitive. It has a bulbous liver, which is the synapomorphy of the genus, but also presents several characteristics which are not shared by the rest of Hyalinobatrachium (except H. taylori , see below). It could be closely related with this last species. Guayasamin et al. (2008) already announced a deep change within the family Centrolenidae that probably will help in assigning the new species into a monophyletic genus.
