In the Colostethus trilineatus group according to the original publication. See comment under Allobates. Melo-Sampaio, Oliveira, and Prates, 2018, S. Am. J.

Evol., 24: 99–118, reported on advertisement call, phylogenetic position, adult and larval morphology, natural history, and provided a revised diagnosis as well as noting that one of the paratypes (INPA-H 4889) may represent an unnamed species.
