Comment
In the Colostethus trilineatus group according to the original publication. See comment under Allobates. Hero, 1990, Amazoniana, 11: 201–262, described larval morphology. Simões and Lima, 2012, Zootaxa, 3499: 86–88, described the larvae. Simões, Kaefer, Farias, and Lima, 2013, Zootaxa, 3746: 401–421, discussed the diagnosis, advertisement call, and range of the species. Avila-Pires, Hoogmoed, and Rocha, 2010, Bol. Mus. Parense Emilio Goeldi, Cienc. Nat., 5: 65, reported the species (as Allobates spumaponens) from northern Pará, Brazil. Simões and Lima, 2012, Zootaxa, 3499: 86–88, described larval morphology (as Allobates sumtuosus). See Cole, Townsend, Reynolds, MacCulloch, and Lathrop, 2013, Proc. Biol. Soc. Washington, 125: 370–578, for brief account and records for Guyana (as Allobates spumaponens). Fouquet, Vacher, Kadosoe, Jairam, and Ouboter, 2015, Herpetol. Notes, 8: 63–68, reported the species from the Sipaliwini Nature Reserve, southern Suriname. Motta, Menin, Almeida, and Hrbek, 2018, Zootaxa, 4438: 79–104, on the basis of 16S rRNA sequence divergence suggested that this nominal species is composed of at least two species, one in central Amazonia and the other in Pará. Schiesari, Rossa-Feres, Menin, and Hödl, 2022, Zootaxa, 5223: 25–27, detailed larval and metamorph morphology and natural history.
