Nat. Hist. Univ. Kansas, 151: 1-23. Hoogmoed and Gruber, 1983, Spixiana, München, Suppl., 9: 369, noted that the lost holotype of this species may have been confused with the types of Hyla nebulosa Spix due to similar habitus. Pimenta, Faivovich, and Pombal, 2007, Zootaxa, 1441: 35-49, discussed this taxon, designated a neotype, and provided an account.
