Comment
Narvaes and Rodrigues, 2009, Arq. Zool., São Paulo, 40: 1-73, revised the Rhinella granulosa group, provided an account for this species, and noted hybridization with Rhinella major in Mato Grosso, Brazil, and with Rhinella granulosa in Bahia, Brazil. Jansen, Bloch, Schulze, and Pfenninger, 2011, Zool. Scripta, 40: 567-583, suggested that this nominal species may include at least one other cryptic species. Morais, Bastos, Annunziata, Kokubum, and Maciel, 2012, Zootaxa, 3265: 66-68, reported on the advertisement call.
