Herpetol., 14: 57, and Köhler, 2000, Bonn. Zool. Monogr., 48: 69, consider this species possibly to occur in Bolivia. In the Dendropsophus parviceps group of Faivovich, Haddad, Garcia, Frost, Campbell, and Wheeler, 2005, Bull. Am. Mus. Nat. Hist., 294: 93. Fouquet, Noonan, Blanc, and Orrico, 2011, Zootaxa, 3035: 59-67, found this species to be distantly related to the Dendropsophus parviceps group sensu stricto, and relatively basal within Dendropsophus.
