Comment
Recuero, Martínez-Solano, Parra-Olea, and García-París, 2006, Mol. Phylogenet. Evol., 39: 293-304, partitioned this taxon (as Pseudacris regilla, sensu stricto—name applied in error; see comment under Pseudacris regilla) out of former Pseudacris regilla (sensu lato), but did not detail the range and the zone of contact with both Pseudacris regilla and Pseudacris hypochondriaca is not documented. See comment under Pseudacris regilla.
