Comment

See comment under Hyla pulchella. See nomenclatural comments by Lavilla and Cei, 2001, Monogr. Mus. Reg. Sci. Nat. Torino, 28: 54-55 (as Scinax eringiophilus). For account and placement in the Scinax ruber group see Kwet, 2001, Salamandra, 37: 211-238. The Scinax ruber group rejected as nonmonophyletic by Faivovich, 2002, Cladistics, 18: 367-393. In the Scinax ruber clade of Faivovich, Haddad, Garcia, Frost, Campbell, and Wheeler, 2005, Bull. Am. Mus. Nat. Hist., 294: 96. Achaval and Olmos, 2003, Anf. Rept. Uruguay, ed. 2: 46, provided a brief account and photograph for the Uruguay population. Barrasso and Cajade, 2007, Herpetol. Rev., 38: 99, provided the Buenos Aires record. Brusquetti and Lavilla, 2006, Cuad. Herpetol., 20: 23, discussed the confusion surrounding reports of this species in southern Paraguay, although they suggested that the species is expected to occur in that country. Moresco, Margarido, Nazario, Schmit, and Treco, 2009, Check List, 5: 86-88, provided a spot map for Brazil and the first record for Paraná, Brazil. Agostini and Roesler, 2011, Check List, 7: 112-113, discussed extralimital records in Buenos Aires province, Argentina. Vega, Bellagamba, Stellatelli, and Natale, 2011, Herpetol. Rev., 42: 109, provided the southern-most record in Argentina and commented on the range.
