Comment
In the Bufo crucifer group according to the original publication. Rödder, Guarnirei, and Teixeira, 2006, Herpetol. Rev., 37: 486-487, provided a new locality and discussed the range in Minas Gerais. Canelas and Bertoluci, 2007, Iheringia, Zool., 97: 21-26, provided some life-history information. Thomé, Zamudio, Giovanelli, Haddad, Baldissera, and Alexandrino, 2010, Mol. Phylogenet. Evol., 55: 1018-1031, reported on molecular biogeography, and noted ambiguity in the mtDNA molecular evidence with respect to the diagnosability of this species.
