New country records for five species of Pristimantis Jiménez de la Espada, 1870 from Ecuador


Abstract:

Five new species of frogs from the genus Pristimantis are reported for Ecuador, thus extending the distribution range for these species, previously described only for the southern Andes of Colombia and the northern Andes of Peru. The diversity of Pristimantis in Ecuador increases to 148 species, adding five additional species to the total of 508 anurans already described for Ecuador. © 2012 Check List and Authors.
