Comment

See Pombal and Bastos, 1992, Herpetol. Rev., 23: 85, who note that records from Espírito Santo probably represent a distinct, smaller species. Izecksohn and Carvalho-e-Silva, 2001, Anf. Municipio Rio de Janeiro: 91, provided a brief account and photo. Malagoli, Condez, and Haddad, 2012, Check List, 8: 505-506, provided a range extension within São Paulo, Brazil, and commented on the range.
