Comment
Removed from the synonymy of Eleutherodactylus punctariolus by Campbell and Savage, 2000, Herpetol. Monogr., 14: 279 (and who placed it in the Eleutherodactylus rugulosus group, Eleutherodactylus punctariolus complex), where it had been placed by Dunn, 1940, Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Philadelphia, 92: 105-122; and Savage, 1975, Copeia, 1975: 288. See brief account by Savage, 2002, Amph. Rept. Costa Rica: 840.
