Vitreorana ritae (Lutz, 1952) View in CoL

TYPE LOCALITY. — Colombia, Amazonas, Río Caiwima, c. 70 km NNE Puerto Nariño.

DISTRIBUTION. — Widespread in Amazonia.

TAXONOMIC REMARKS. — Vitreorana oyampiensis , described from French Guiana is currently considered a junior synonym of Vitreorana ritae (Cisneros-Heredia 2013) . However, given the geographical distance from the type locality and French Guiana and the absence of molecular and acoustic data from Colombia we argue that this synonymy remains dubious.

HABITAT IN MITARAKA. — Several calling males were heard from low height in bushes near flooded areas.

MATERIAL EXAMINED. — La Planète Revisitée Guyane 2015, MNHN-PNI, APA973-1: AF2787 (♂) .
