Eleutherodactylus viejas Lynch and Rueda-Almonacid 1999: 311 . Pristimantis viejas — Hedges et al. 2008: 121.

Males SVL = 15.3–19.1 mm, females 24.0– 29.1 mm ( Lynch and Rueda-Almonacid 1999). Rounded snout; males have vocal slits, nuptial pads and tubercles on the external edge of the tarsus; Finger II longer than Finger I; posterior surfaces of the thigh dark brown with orange spots. Two individuals were observed during the study in sub Andean and riparian forest, on leaves of plants and bushes, close to the ground. This is the first record of the species in the department of Boyacá, since it was only reported previously in the mid Magdalena region, on the eastern slope of the Cordillera Central in the departments of Antioquia and Caldas, and on the western slope of the Cordillera Oriental in the departments of Cundinamarca and Santander, at elevations between 600 and 1800 m ( Lynch and Rueda-Almonacid 1999).
