Comment
In the Bolitoglossa dunni group, related to Bolitoglossa celaque, according to the original publication. McCranie and Köhler, 1999, Senckenb. Biol., 79: 107, noted that the photograph in the original description was not of the holotype, a picture of which they provided. McCranie and Wilson, 2002, Amph. Honduras: 133-135, and McCranie, 2006, Cat. Am. Amph. Rept., 823: 1-3, provided accounts. In the Bolitoglossa (Magnadigita) dunni group of Parra-Olea, García-París, and Wake, 2004, Biol. J. Linn. Soc., 81: 336. Raffaëlli, 2007, Les Urodèles du Monde: 269, provided a brief account and map. McCranie, 2007, Herpetol. Rev., 38: 36, summarized the departmental distribution in Honduras.
