English Names
Evergreen Robber Frog (Frank and Ramus, 1995, Compl. Guide Scient. Common Names Amph. Rept. World: 75).
Distribution
Evergreen forests of the lowlands and premontane slopes of eastern and central Panama (10-850 m), northwestern Panama (10-1450 m), and the lowlands of adjacent extreme southeastern Costa Rica and the premontane zone of northeastern Costa Rica (50-1500m); one record from the lowlands (262 m) of northeastern Costa Rica at Guapiles.
Comment
In the Eleutherodactylus gollmeri group of Savage. Removed from the synonymy of Eleutherodactylus guentheri by Cochran, 1955 "1954", Bull. U.S. Natl. Mus., 206: 273. See account by Savage, 1987, Fieldiana, Zool., N.S.,, 33: 9-14, who noted that earlier records for this species from Nicaragua are based on representatives of Eleutherodactylus noblei or Eleutherodactylus mimus, those from Honduras on Eleutherodactylus chac, Eleutherodactylus laticeps, and Eleutherodactylus rostralis. In the Eleutherodactylus (Craugastor) gollmeri group of Lynch and Duellman, 1997, Univ. Kansas Mus. Nat. Hist. Spec. Publ., 23: 225. See account by Savage, 2002, Amph. Rept. Costa Rica: 245-246, who included this species in his Eleutherodactylus fitzingeri series, Eleutherodactylus gollmeri group. In the Craugastor laticeps species series of Hedges, Duellman, and Heinicke, 2008, Zootaxa, 1737: 38. Ibáñez, Jaramillo, and Solís, 2012, Zootaxa, 3184: 67-68, reported on the advertisement call.
