Comment

Powell, 1993, Herpetol. Rev., 24: 135-137, suggested that Bufo guentheri fractus warranted binominal status. Subsequently, Powell, Ottenwalder, and Inchaustegui, 1999, in Crother (ed.), Caribb. Amph. Rept.: 100, treated it as a distinct species. See comment under Bufo guentheri. See map, description of geographic range and habitat, and conservation status (as Bufo fractus) in Stuart, Hoffmann, Chanson, Cox, Berridge, Ramani, and Young, 2008, Threatened Amph. World: 183.
