Comment
In the Eupsophus vertebralis group of Formas and Brieva, 1994, Proc. Biol. Soc. Washington, 107: 391-397. Argentina record from Úbeda, Ramilo, Chehebar, and Vidoz, 1999, Herpetol. Rev., 30: 230. Díaz-Páez and Nuñez, 2002, Herpetol. Rev., 33: 220, provided additional records for Chile. Vera Candioti, Nuñez, and Úbeda, 2010, Acta Zool., Stockholm, 92: 27–45, described development, morphology, and anatomy of the tadpoles. Correa-Quezada and Durán, 2019, ZooKeys, 863: 107–152, discussed the species and noted that its mtDNA phylogeny is not exclusive with respect to Eupsophus vertebralis. Suárez-Villota, Quercia, and Nuñez, 2018, J. Genomics, 6: 98–102, reported on the mitochondrial genome. See Correa-Quezada and Durán, 2019, ZooKeys, 863: 107–152, for discussion of systematics and range. Raimilla and de la Harpe, 2019, Bol. Chil. Herpetol., 6: 59–63, reported localities on Clemente Island, National Reserve Las Guaitecas in the Aysen region, Chile. Quercia, Suárez-Villota, Foresti, and Nuñez, 2020, Comp. Cytogenet., 14: 61–74, discussed the comparative cytogenetics of this species and Eupsophus vertebralis.
