Comment
See Jaramillo-Martinez, Vilà, Guayasamin, Gagliardi-Urrutia, Rojas-Runjaic, Simões, Chaparro, Aguilar-Manihuari, and Castroviejo-Fisher, 2025, Bull. Am. Mus. Nat. Hist., 471: 1–83, for phylogenetics, osteology, advertisement call, and a dot map. These authors also noted a hybrid zone with Allobates insperatus in the Napo-Putumayo interfluve and a divergent mitochondrial lineage (possibly a distinct species) in the populations around Iquitos, Peru.
