Comment

In the Hyalinobatrachium fleischmanni group according to the original publication. Ibáñez, Jaramillo, and Jaramillo, 1999, Rev. Acad. Colomb. Cienc. Exact. Fis. Nat., 23: 293-298, reported on the range and tadpole. Cisneros-Heredia and McDiarmid, 2007, Zootaxa, 1572: 48, reported the species for Panama without definite localities and also reported the species for Ecuador (and mapped these localities), although the identification of Ecuadorian specimens was considered tentative. Bustamante, Cisneros-Heredia, Yanez-Munoz, Ortega-Andrade, and Guayasamin, 2007, Check List, 3: 271-276, formally reported the species in northwestern Ecuador.
